Such approaches can help drastically reduce the computation time and generate a good estimate of computationally intensive processes in power systems. Such neural networks can be applied in safety-critical applications in power systems and build a high level of trust among power system operators.

• Abstract: Physics-informed neural networks exploit the existing models of the underlying physical systems to generate higher accuracy results with fewer data. Such approaches can help drastically reduce the computation time and generate a good estimate of computationally intensive processes in power systems, such as dynamic security assessment or optimal power flow. Combined with the extraction of worst-case guarantees for the neural network performance, such neural networks can be applied in safety-critical applications in power systems and build a high level of trust among power system operators. This paper takes the first step and applies, for the first time to our knowledge, Physics-Informed Neural Networks with Worst-Case Guarantees for the DC Optimal Power Flow problem. We look for guarantees related to (i) maximum constraint violations, (ii) maximum distance between predicted and optimal decision variables, and (iii) maximum sub-optimality in the entire input domain. In a range of PGLib-OPF networks, we demonstrate how physics-informed neural networks can be supplied with worst-case guarantees and how they can lead to reduced worst-case violations compared with conventional neural networks.

  We develop a deep learning framework to approximate the optimal resource allocation policy for base stations. We find that a fully-connected neural network (NN) cannot fully guarantee the requirements due to the approximation errors and quantization errors of the numbers of subcarriers. Considering that the distribution of wireless channels and the types of services in the wireless networks are non-stationary, we apply deep transfer learning to update NNs in non-stationary wireless networks.
