Abstract: An estimation system generates, from a value of a time series of an estimation object in a past period, a plurality of patterns of a transition of a value of the estimation object. Based on the plurality of generated patterns and a value of a time series of a factor in the past period, the estimation system specifies a dependency relationship between a transition pattern and a value of the factor and a transition pattern at a past (or future) time point and identifies a model in accordance with the specified dependency relationship. By inputting a value of a time series of the factor in a future period to the estimation model, the estimation system specifies a time series of a value in the future period of the estimation object using at least one transition pattern.

Abstract: Example implementations described herein are directed to detection of historical anomalous events that are similar to currently occurring events in a transmission power system based on phasor management unit (PMU) data to provide information to grid operators with online decision support. From the high-resolution time synchronized PMU data, the historical events can be quickly retrieved and compared to the currently occurring event so that operators can be provided with remedy actions that were attempted in response to the historical events. Utilization of PMU information for such decision support may compliment operation practices relying on supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) measurements by allowing a much fast response to the currently occurring event. Accurate identification of similar, historical events can advise grid operators of the cause of disturbances and provide ideas for response.
