Distribution System State Estimation Via Data-Driven and Physics-Aware Deep Neural Networks

Massive integration of renewables and electric vehicles comes with unknown dynamics - what exemplifies the need for fast, accurate, and robust distribution system state estimation (DSSE). Due to limited real-time measurements however, optimization-oriented DSSE faces major challenges related to convergence, as well as multiple global/local minima. To address these challenges, this paper puts forth a novel deep neural network (DNN)-based...
