Cognitive Methodology and Its Applications in Power Systems
Yixin Yu · 2006
Cognitive science is a new and interdisciplinary science which concentrates on the research of mind and intelligence from different aspects and viewpoints.Cognitive methodology consists of a set of methods based on cognitive science for solving practical problems.The evolution,definitions,essential hypothesizes and research areas classification of cognitive science are summarized.Then objective and framework of its engineering applications are analyzed.State-of-the-art of the methodology applied in power systems is discussed based on three phases of engineering development as design,implementation and evaluation.Cognitive methodology can solve many problems which are difficult for conventional methods, and it has large potential applications in power systems.
