Abstract

The problem of restoration of the power grid after shutdowns requires extensive heterogeneous knowledge, has high combinatorial complexity, many limitations and conditions, including limitation on the decision-making time. Under such conditions, traditional abstract-mathematical methods are irrelevant to the complexity of the control object, and solving the problem by expert team is irrelevant to its dynamism. In this regard, hybrid intelligent multi-agent system that model collective heterogeneous thinking processes during the decision-making under the guidance of a facilitator are proposed to solve problems in dynamic environments, in particular distribution grid restoration-planning problem. The paper discusses the model, the functional structure, and the collective heterogeneous thinking protocol of such systems.

The reported study was funded by RFBR according to the research project No. 18-07-00448A.
