Abstract
In the power and energy industry, multiple entities in grid operational logs are frequently recorded and updated. Thanks to recent advances in IT facilities and smart metering services, a variety of datasets such as system load, generation mix, and grid connection are often publicly available. While these resources are valuable in evaluating power grid's operational conditions and system resilience, the lack of fine-grained, accurate locational information constrain the usage of current data, which further hinders the development of smart grid and renewables integration. For instance, electricity end users are not aware of nodal generation mix or carbon emissions, while the general public have limited understanding about the effect of demand response or renewables integration if only the whole system's demands and generations are available. In this work, we focus on recovering power grid topology and line flow directions from open public dataset. Taking the Alberta grid as a working example, we start from mapping multi-modal power system datasets to the grid topology integrated with geographical information. By designing a novel optimization-based scheme to recover line flow directions, we are able to analyze and visualize the interactions between generations and demand vectors in an efficient manner. Proposed research is fully open-sourced and highly generalizable, which can help model and visualize grid information, create synthetic dataset, and facilitate analytics and decision-making framework for clean energy transition.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
