Deep learning-based optimization method for detecting data anomalies in power usage detection devices

In this paper, the self-attention layer of a graph convolutional neural network is first constructed to output the important information in the network structure. The migration learning network model is established, and the sample data are preprocessed and trained sequentially. The final processing results are used as the initial data for abnormal power consumption detection. Introduce Bayes’ theorem to optimize the hyperparameters of the model. The optimized model is applied in the abnormal power consumption detection system to identify abnormal power consumption events and provide specific processing solutions. Through the detection of the system, it was found that the voltage of the test user dropped from a 100V cliff to about 20V in late November, which was determined by the system to be a power consumption abnormality, and, therefore, an operation and maintenance order was issued. The site survey revealed that the data was in line with the system detection. Calculating the power consumption information of another user, the phase voltage of this user stays around 85-100V, far below 150V, so the undercounting of power is verified for the user, and the amount of power that should be recovered is 201.22kW. © 2024 Hang Shang, Bing Bai, Yang Mao, Jinhua Ding and Jiani Wang, published by Sciendo.
