Continuously recorded high-resolution waveform measurements provide rich information about fast power system dynamics. However, they require automated methods to identify events. This problem is addressed by developing a spectrogram-based framework to jointly detect, localize, and classify events in real-world continuously recorded waveforms at the terminal of an Inverter-Based Resource. We recast this problem as a temporal object detection problem on spectrogram images, as they capture the transient and harmonic signatures more explicitly than in raw waveform data. Each time-series waveform is transformed using the short-time Fourier transform, and the resulting per-channel spectrograms are stacked as a tensor for event detection. We benchmark this method against a detector operating directly on raw time-series measurements. Experiments on single-phase disturbances and three-phase faults demonstrate that the proposed spectrogram method consistently improves event detection, localization, and classification over the raw waveform baseline.
Inverter-based resources and IEC 61850 process-bus measurements introduce new protection challenges, including nontraditional fault behavior and measurement-domain cyber-physical attacks. This paper evaluates DL-Xformer, an attention-based Transformer classifier for multi-class f…
This paper presents RealDESED, a real-world domestic sound event detection (SED) benchmark comprising 5,710 audio recordings collected by 652 participants in their homes. Each recording is between 15 and 35 seconds long and contains temporally precise annotations for 15 common do…
Fake speech detectors are increasingly challenged by the development of new and more accurate generative models. To cope with this problem, continual learning techniques are nowadays widely considered feasible strategies for updating models to new datasets, but they also lead to…
This work addresses the need for engineering-grounded evaluation of implement-ed tariff mechanisms in distribution-level energy systems. A digital twin-based method is proposed for assessing local collective tariffs under realistic behavioral and infrastructural conditions. The a…
Sound event detection relies on frame-level strong labels whose annotation is expensive. Active learning addresses this problem by selecting the audio segments whose labels help the classifier most. One of the prevailing acquisition strategies for this task, mismatch-first farthe…
Fine-grained offensive language detection organizes labels into a hierarchical structure, for which two modeling paradigms exist: cascaded decomposition and joint multi-task modeling. Prior work rarely provides a direct, controlled comparison of the two paradigms in terms of accu…
