Abstract
A successful adoption and adaptation of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm is presented in this paper. It improves the performance of Support Vector Machine (SVM) in the classification of incipient faults of power transformers. A PSO-based encoding technique is developed to improve the accuracy of classification. The proposed scheme is capable of removing misleading input features and, optimizing the kernel parameters at the same time. Experiments on real operational data had demonstrated the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed approach. The power system industry can benefit from our system in both the accelerated operational speed and the improved accuracy in the classification of incipient faults.
