This National Science Foundation project grant of $300,000 supports research at the University of Tulsa to develop a decentralized artificial intelligence framework for distribution system fault detection, identification, and power restoration. Under the NSF Engineering program (CFDA 47.041), the university will create a graph capsule network to recognize spatial and temporal patterns in distribution systems and identify fault types and locations. Researchers will also devise a novel decentralized multi-agent reinforcement learning system to solve large-scale restoration problems considering high-dimensional system states and actions. The project aims to address knowledge transfer challenges for multi-agent systems and establish a lifelong restoration framework adaptable to power system topology changes. An interpretable knowledge base incorporating attention models will facilitate expert verification and modification of restoration solutions using human experience. The award period is from August 1, 2022 through July 31, 2025.
