Analog circuit fault diagnosis is crucial for ensuring the reliability and safety of electronic systems. To overcome the limitations of traditional methods, this study proposes a novel analog circuit fault diagnosis method based on Continuous Wavelet Transform (CWT) and Dual-Stream Convolutional Neural Network (DSCNN). The method uses CWT to convert raw fault waveform data into two-dimensional time–frequency images and employs a one-dimensional convolutional neural network (1D-CNN) to extract temporal features and a two-dimensional convolutional neural network (2D-CNN) to extract image features, achieving feature fusion. Additionally, the model incorporates a Convolutional Block Attention Module (CBAM), which includes channel and spatial attention modules, to enhance the model’s expressive power. Experiments on the Sallen–Key band-pass filter circuit, four-op-amp biquad high-pass filter circuit, and Tow-Thomas filter circuit validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, demonstrating excellent fault classification accuracy. Their classification accuracies reached 1.0000 ± 0.0000, 99.66% ± 0.0016, and 0.9771 ± 0.0023, respectively. Under various SNR conditions, our proposed model consistently maintains the highest classification accuracy with minimal impact from SNR variations. Furthermore, detailed practical experiments on the four-op-amp biquad high-pass filter circuit show that this model outperforms 1DCNN, CWT-CNN, and ISSA-SVM by 3.85%, 5.50%, and 6.39%, respectively, further proving the model’s superior feature extraction capability.

This study proposes a lightweight and efficient classification method for Power Quality Disturbances (PQDs) using the PowerMobileNet model, which combines the S-transform for time-frequency feature extraction and the MobileNetV3-CBAM neural network for enhanced classification performance. Extensive experiments demonstrate that PowerMobileNet achieves a prediction accuracy of 99.33%, significantly surpassing traditional Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) at 97.07% and MobileNetV3-SE at 98.58%. Compared to other state-of-the-art models, PowerMobileNet outperforms KELM (97.4%), SqueezeNet (99.0%), ShuffleNet V2 (98.6%), and AlexNet (98.3%) in terms of classification accuracy. Additionally, it exhibits superior robustness under various signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) conditions, maintaining high accuracy even at low SNR levels (e.g., 90% accuracy at 20 dB). The model’s parameter count is drastically reduced to 374,632 (1.43 MB), compared to the traditional CNN’s 112,094,345 (427.61 MB), making it highly suitable for resource-constrained environments. Furthermore, PowerMobileNet demonstrates the shortest runtime, with a training duration of 925 s and a classification time of 0.57 s. These results validate the effectiveness and efficiency of PowerMobileNet for real-time PQD classification, offering significant potential for practical power quality monitoring applications.

Power transformers are vital in power systems, where oil temperature is a key operational indicator. This study proposes an advanced hybrid neural network model, BWO-TCN-BiGRU-Attention, to predict the top-oil temperature of transformers. The model was validated using temperature data from power transformers in two Chinese regions. It achieved MAEs of 0.5258 and 0.9995, MAPEs of 2.75% and 2.73%, and RMSEs of 0.6353 and 1.2158, significantly outperforming mainstream methods like ELM, PSO-SVR, Informer, CNN-BiLSTM-Attention, and CNN-GRU-Attention. In tests conducted in spring, summer, autumn, and winter, the model’s MAPE was 2.75%, 3.44%, 3.93%, and 2.46% for Transformer 1, and 2.73%, 2.78%, 3.07%, and 2.05% for Transformer 2, respectively. These results indicate that the model can maintain low prediction errors even with significant seasonal temperature variations. In terms of time granularity, the model performed well at both 1 h and 15 min intervals: for Transformer 1, MAPE was 2.75% at 1 h granularity and 2.98% at 15 min granularity; for Transformer 2, MAPE was 2.73% at 1 h granularity and further reduced to 2.16% at 15 min granularity. This shows that the model can adapt to different seasons and maintain good prediction performance with high-frequency data, providing reliable technical support for the safe and stable operation of power systems.

In the realm of renewable energy, harnessing wind power efficiently is crucial for establishing a low-carbon power system. However, the intermittent and uncertain nature of wind speed poses significant challenges for accurate prediction, which is essential for effective grid integration and dispatch management. To address this challenge, this paper introduces a novel hybrid model, NRBO-TXAD, which integrates a Newton–Raphson-based optimizer (NRBO) with a Transformer and XGBoost, further enhanced by adaptive denoising techniques. The interquartile range–adaptive moving average filter (IQR-AMAF) method is employed to preprocess the data by removing outliers and smoothing the data, thereby improving the quality of the input. The NRBO efficiently optimizes the hyperparameters of the Transformer, thereby enhancing its learning performance. Meanwhile, XGBoost is utilized to compensate for any residual prediction errors. The effectiveness of the proposed model was validated using two real-world wind speed datasets. Among eight models, including LSTM, Informer, and hybrid baselines, NRBO-TXAD demonstrated superior performance. Specifically, for Case 1, NRBO-TXAD achieved a mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) of 11.24% and a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.2551. For Case 2, the MAPE was 4.90%, and the RMSE was 0.2976. Under single-step forecasting, the MAPE for Case 2 was as low as 2.32%. Moreover, the model exhibited remarkable robustness across multiple time steps. These results confirm the model’s effectiveness in capturing wind speed fluctuations and long-range dependencies, making it a reliable solution for short-term wind forecasting. This research not only contributes to the field of signal analysis and machine learning but also highlights the potential of hybrid models in addressing complex prediction tasks within the context of artificial intelligence.
