Traditional Bad Data Detection (BDD) algorithms, deployed to remove low-quality data, can easily be bypassed by these attacks which require minimal knowledge about the parameters of the power bus systems. This makes it essential to develop defence approaches that are generic and scalable to all types of power systems. Deep learning algorithms provide state-of-the-art detection for FDIA while requiring no knowledge about system parameters. However, there are very few works in the literature that evaluate these models for FDIA detection at the level of an individual node in the power system. In this paper, we compare several recent deep learning-based model that proven their high performance and accuracy in detecting the exact location of the attack node, which are convolutional neural networks (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), attention-based bidirectional LSTM, and hybrid models. We, then, compare their performance with baseline multi-layer perceptron (MLP)., All the models are evaluated on IEEE-14 and IEEE-118 bus systems in terms of row accuracy (RACC), computational time, and memory space required for training the deep learning model. Each model was further investigated through a manual grid search to determine the optimal architecture of the deep learning model, including the number of layers and neurons in each layer. Based on the results, CNN model exhibited consistently high performance in very short training time. LSTM achieved the second highest accuracy; however, it had required an averagely higher training time. The attention-based LSTM model achieved a high accuracy of 94.53 during hyperparameter tuning, while the CNN model achieved a moderately lower accuracy with only one-fourth of the training time. Finally, the performance of each model was quantified on different variants of the dataset—which varied in their <span>({text{l}}_{2})</span>-norm. Based on the results, LSTM, CNN obtained the highest accuracy followed by CNN-LSTM and lastly MLP.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":538,"journal":{"name":"Energy Informatics","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1186/s42162-024-00381-9.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142218447","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results reveal significant differences in the evaluation of technologies between the two models. In the Caribbean 1, Diffuse TOPSIS gave a higher score to Solar Photovoltaics, while TOPSIS favored Hydropower. In the Caribbean 2, Solar Photovoltaic obtained similar scores in both models, but Wind was rated better by TOPSIS.
