When Power Flow Models Go Off the Rails
DPFL methods vary in flexibility when selecting predictors and responses, impacting performance. Challenges like multicollinearity, zero predictors, and normalization constraints must be carefully managed for accurate power flow modeling.
Why Current Power Flow Models May Not Work in Real-World Scenarios
Current DPFL studies often rely on artificial data without noise, lack transparency in load fluctuation, and conduct limited comparative analyses. A broader, real-world-focused evaluation is needed.
How 44 Different Algorithms Compare in Power Flow Optimization
This evaluation of 44 DPFL methods explores the impact of constraints, introduces novel least squares and clustering-based approaches, and compares widely used physics-driven power flow linearization models.
New Study Reveals the Best AI Models for Power Grid Optimization
A large-scale benchmarking study of 44 DPFL methods identifies performance trends, practical limitations, and research gaps. This work supports method selection and outlines ten key future directions in DPFL.
