Data Mining Techniques and Applications in the Power Transmission Field

There are increasing demands to better exploit system and equipment databases. Data mining is part of a broader process termed knowledge discovery in databases. Essentially, it is the application of relatively novel approaches to find undiscovered meanings in data accumulations. The aim is to find patterns that are not readily predicted by established theory and unlock the information held within the data. TF D1.11.04 in association with WG D1.11 has investigated and reported on data mining utilization, methods and on a few relevant power transmission applications.
