Probabilistic Small-Signal Stability Analysis Of Power System With Solar Farm Integration, Samundra Gurung, Sumate Naetiladdanon, Anawach Sangswang

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Currently, large-scale solar farms are being rapidly integrated in electrical grids all over the world. However, the photovoltaic (PV) output power is highly intermittent in nature and can also be correlated with other solar farms located at different places. Moreover, the increasing PV penetration also results in large solar forecast error and its impact on power system stability should be estimated. The effects of these quantities on small-signal stability are difficult to quantify using deterministic techniques but can be conveniently estimated using probabilistic methods. For this purpose, the authors have developed a method of probabilistic analysis based on combined cumulant …

Optimal Training And Test Sets Design For Machine Learning, Burkay Genç, Hüseyi̇n Tunç

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

In this paper, we describe histogram matching, a metric for measuring the distance of two datasets with exactly the same features, and embed it into a mixed integer programming formulation to partition a dataset into fixed size training and test subsets. The partition is done such that the pairwise distances between the dataset and the subsets are minimized with respect to histogram matching. We then conduct a numerical study using a well-known machine learning dataset. We demonstrate that the training set constructed with our approach provides feature distributions almost the same as the whole dataset, whereas training sets constructed via …

By placing two pairs of triangular shaped slots on the ground plane just below the nonradiating edges of the patch, high gain (around 9 dBi) and more than 22 dB polarization purity over a wide elevation angle has been achieved. The proposed antenna covers almost the …

A Hybrid Single-Source Shortest Path Algorithm, Hi̇lal Arslan, Murat Manguoğlu Jan 2019

A Hybrid Single-Source Shortest Path Algorithm, Hi̇lal Arslan, Murat Manguoğlu

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

The single-source shortest path problem arises in many applications, such as roads, social applications, and computer networks. Finding the shortest path is challenging, especially for graphs that contain a large number of vertices and edges. In this work, we propose a novel hybrid method that first sparsifies a given graph by removing most edges that cannot form the shortest path tree and then applies a classical shortest path algorithm to the sparser graph. Removing all the edges that cannot form the shortest path tree would be expensive since it is equivalent to solving the original problem. Therefore, we propose an …
