Abstract
We present a data prepossessing method for parameter identification based on clustering and hypothesis testing in a power distribution network to successfully achieve a more accurate result. This method considers the similarities of data in both spatial relationship and statistical theory, then builds a sophisticated data processing method to improve the performance of dynamic model-based parameter identification models, i.e., Markov chain Monte Carlo and sequential model-based global optimization. We applied this data processing method to the actual feeder data with no adjustment of the other condition. The experiment shows that our method achieves a 4.8% improvement in accuracy at most.
