Forthcoming articles have been peer-reviewed and accepted for publication but are pending final changes, are not yet published and may not appear here in their final order of publication until they are assigned to issues. Therefore, the content conforms to our standards but the presentation (e.g. typesetting and proof-reading) is not necessarily up to the Inderscience standard. Additionally, titles, authors, abstracts and keywords may change before publication. Articles will not be published until the final proofs are validated by their authors.

Forthcoming articles must be purchased for the purposes of research, teaching and private study only. These articles can be cited using the expression "in press". For example: Smith, J. (in press). Article Title. Journal Title.

Online First articles are published online here, before they appear in a journal issue. Online First articles are fully citeable, complete with a DOI. They can be cited, read, and downloaded. Online First articles are published as Open Access (OA) articles to make the latest research available as early as possible.

Open AccessArticles marked with this Open Access icon are Online First articles. They are freely available and openly accessible to all without any restriction except the ones stated in their respective CC licenses.

  • A Classification and Prediction Model with the Sparrow Search-Probabilistic Neural Network Algorithm for Transformer Fault Diagnosis   Order a copy of this article

    Abstract: We present a fault prediction model for transformers to improve the accuracy of transformer fault (TF) prediction. The model is predicated on a probabilistic neural network (PNN) that is optimised using three gas ratios with the help of the sparrow search algorithm (SSA). First, we monitor real-time gas concentrations and calculate the essential gas ratio by installing a smart gas sensor inside the transformer. Optimise the PNN by using the SSA algorithm. Subsequently, establish a mapping model between gas ratios and fault types. At last, we assess the model’s prediction performance by calculating the mean square error. The results we got demonstrate that this method achieves a prediction accuracy of 90%, which is superior to the back propagation (BP) network, the k-nearest neighbour (KNN), and the support vector machine (SVM). This research offers an efficient and dependable approach for TF prediction.
