摘要

为了最大限度地提高电力系统可靠性,本文考虑电力系统网络安全约束和机组检修工作合理性约束对机组检修问题进行了建模。鉴于机组检修问题的计算复杂性,本文基于支持向量机的变量选择方法来求解0-1混合整数规划问题。该方法通过搜集强分支策略的决策数据,然后基于支持向量积学习一个函数模仿强分支策略函数。然后,在后续求解过程中采用学习拟合到的排序函数进行分支变量选择。测试算例表明,本文提出的基于机组检修问题分支定界过程提出的特征学习到的分支变量选择方法能够在保证求解精度的基础上提高机组检修问题的求解速度。

Learning to branch in the generation maintenance scheduling

Abstract

To maximize the reliability index of a power system, this study modeled a generation maintenance scheduling problem that considers the network security constraints and rationality constraints of the generation maintenance practice   in a power system. In view of the computational complexity of the generation maintenance scheduling model, a variable selection method based on a support vector machine (SVM) is proposed to solve the 0–1 mixed integer programming problem (MIP). The algorithm observes and collects data from the decisions made by strong branching (SB) and then learns a surrogate function that mimics the SB strategy using a support vector machine. The learned ranking function is then    used for variable branching during the solution process of the model. The test case showed that the proposed variable selection algorithm — based on the features of the proposed generation maintenance scheduling problem during branch-and-bound — can increase the solution efficiency of the generation-scheduling model on the premise of guaranteed accuracy.
