Abstract

A Hybrid Model for Anomalies Detection in AMI System Combining K-means Clustering and Deep Neural Network

Highlights

  • In recent years, there has been a global trend to optimize the use of electrical networks by automating and transforming all parts of the traditional electrical power grid: from the user’s household electrical appliances to the power-generating stations into an interactive and intelligent grid

  • The main contributions of this paper can be summarized as explained below: 1. We present a novel and robust hybrid approach for anomaly detection in advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) data, by combining the advantages of both unsupervised clustering and supervised classification, K-means-Deep Neural Network (DNN) approach is effective for anomaly detection in the case of unlabeled and large data sets

  • We identify groups of customers with similar electricity consumption patterns to understand different types of normal behavior

Summary

Introduction

There has been a global trend to optimize the use of electrical networks by automating and transforming all parts of the traditional electrical power grid: from the user’s household electrical appliances to the power-generating stations into an interactive and intelligent grid. Many cyber-security experts [Zetter (2015); Weaver (2015); Ayers (2017)] have proven that the smart meter, which is the foremost component of AMI system, has become a potential target of cyber-attacks and hacking attempts. These malicious attempts (on AMI system) usually aim to realize several outcomes: 1) data theft; 2) electricity theft; and 3) localized or widespread denial of electricity [Wilshusen (2015); Weaver (2017); Foreman and Gurugubelli (2015); Hansen, Staggs and Shenoi (2017)]. Electricity theft is among the most dangerous and popular attacks on the AMI system
