Exact and Evolutionary Algorithms for Sequential Multi-Objective Transmission Topology Planning
Job Groeneveld, Miguel Muñoz, Jan Viebahn +1
We study day-ahead transmission topology control for high-voltage grid operation under security constraints. The operational task is to select, over a 24-hour horizon, a sequ…
Random Walks with Traversal Costs: Variance-Aware Performance Analysis and Network Optimization
Thao Le, Robbert van der Burg, Bernd Heidergott +2
We introduce weighted Markovian graphs, a random walk model that decouples the transition dynamics of a Markov chain from (random) edge weights representing the cost of traversing…
A First-Order Gradient Approach for the Connectivity Optimization of Markov Chains
Christian P. C. Franssen, Alessandro Zocca, Bernd F. Heidergott
Graphs are commonly used to model various complex systems, including social networks, power grids, transportation networks, and biological systems. In many applications, the connec…
Optimizing Power Grid Topologies with Reinforcement Learning: A Survey of Methods and Challenges
Erica van der Sar, Alessandro Zocca, Sandjai Bhulai
Power grid operation is becoming increasingly complex due to the rising integration of renewable energy sources and the need for more adaptive control strategies. Reinforcement Lea…
