  • Geodesic distance on optimally regularized functional connectomes uncovers individual fingerprints
    'Mary Ann Liebert Inc', 2021
    Co-Authors: Abbas Kausar, Liu Mintao, Venkatesh Manasij, Amico Enrico, Kaplan, Alan David, Ventresca Mario, Pessoa Luiz, Harezlak Jaroslaw, Goñi Joaquín
    Abstract:

    Background: Functional connectomes (FCs), have been shown to provide a reproducible individual fingerprint, which has opened the possibility of personalized medicine for neuro/psychiatric disorders. Thus, developing accurate ways to compare FCs is essential to establish associations with behavior and/or cognition at the individual-level. Methods: Canonically, FCs are compared using Pearson's correlation coefficient of the entire functional connectivity profiles. Recently, it has been proposed that the use of geodesic distance is a more accurate way of comparing functional connectomes, one which reflects the underlying non-Euclidean geometry of the data. Computing geodesic distance requires FCs to be positive-definite and hence invertible matrices. As this requirement depends on the fMRI scanning length and the parcellation used, it is not always attainable and sometimes a regularization procedure is required. Results: In the present work, we show that regularization is not only an Algebraic Operation for making FCs invertible, but also that an optimal magnitude of regularization leads to systematically higher fingerprints. We also show evidence that optimal regularization is dataset-dependent, and varies as a function of condition, parcellation, scanning length, and the number of frames used to compute the FCs. Discussion: We demonstrate that a universally fixed regularization does not fully uncover the potential of geodesic distance on individual fingerprinting, and indeed could severely diminish it. Thus, an optimal regularization must be estimated on each dataset to uncover the most differentiable across-subject and reproducible within-subject geodesic distances between FCs. The resulting pairwise geodesic distances at the optimal regularization level constitute a very reliable quantification of differences between subjects.Comment: 39 pages, 7 figures, 4 table

  • optimal design of the sectional switch and tie line for the distribution network based on the fault incidence matrix
    IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2019
    Co-Authors: Tianyu Zhang, Chengshan Wang, Fengzhang Luo, Liangzhong Yao
    Abstract:

    An optimal planning model of the sectional switch and tie line for the distribution network is proposed considering the tradeoff between the system reliability and economy. First, the fault incidence matrices are established for the distribution network, and the explicit analytical expression of the system reliability index is realized by the Algebraic Operation of the fault incidence matrices and fault parameter vectors. Then, the 0–1 integer quadratically constrained optimization model is established for the sectional switch configuration considering the capacity constraint of the tie line. Finally, the sectional switches and tie lines are optimized jointly to ensure the economic investment and maximize the system reliability. The distribution network in Taiwan Power Company is used to verify the applicability of the proposed optimization method. Compared with the intelligent optimization algorithm, the mathematical programming method in this paper can always find the global optimal switch configuration quickly. In addition, the influence of the tie line capacity constraints on the sectional switch configuration is also considered, which can provide practical reference for the power network planners in the optimization design of the distribution network.

  • Fault Incidence Matrix Based Reliability Evaluation Method for Complex Distribution System
    IEEE Transactions on Power Systems, 2018
    Co-Authors: Chengshan Wang, Tianyu Zhang, Peng Li
    Abstract:

    A fast reliability calculation method based on the fault incidence matrix (FIM) for the complex distribution system is proposed in this paper. First, the M-segment-N-tie-switch (MSNT) reliability calculation unit for the complex distribution network is established and the power supply path matrix is obtained by inversing the node branch incidence matrix of the MSNT unit. Then, three types of FIMs are constructed considering the influence type of each fault event on the load points. Finally, the system reliability indexes are calculated through the Algebraic Operation between the FIMs and the fault event parameter vectors. The accuracy and the efficiency of this method are verified using the IEEE RBTS bus-6 system. The reliability evaluation method proposed in this paper avoids complicated fault event enumeration and repetitive fault influence range searching, thus, saves the computation time greatly. And more importantly, the analytical expression of the reliability indexes in the matrix form can clearly show the influence of each fault event on each load interruption. So, it is convenient for the reliability sensitivity analysis and helpful for the operator with the reliability improvement planning.
