Conference Proceeding
Ganjavi, A., Christopher, E., Johnson, C. M., & Clare, J. (2017). A study on probability of distribution loads based on expectation maximization algorithm. In IEEE Power and Energy Society Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference, ISGT 2017 (1-5). https://doi.org/10.1109/ISGT.2017.8086037

In a distribution power network, the load model has no certain pattern or predicted behaviour due to large range of data and changes in energy consumption for end-user consumers. Thus, a powerful analysis based on probabilistic structure is required.... Read More about A study on probability of distribution loads based on expectation maximization algorithm.
