description In the past decade, distribution system state estimation has become a crucial topic in power system research due to the increasing importance of distribution networks amidst the decline of centralized energy production. This paper addresses a gap in the literature regarding the application of modern hyperparameter optimization techniques in low-voltage distribution system state estimation using deep neural networks. In particular, it demonstrates the use of the Tree-structured Parzen Estimator algorithm, which is a Bayesian hyperparameter optimization method, for distribution system state estimation on real Hungarian low-voltage networks. The study uses data from four real-life low-voltage supply areas in Hungary, which were modeled to address the challenges in obtaining network information. Compared to traditional methods like the weighted least squares method, the Tree-structured Parzen Estimator algorithm significantly improves the accuracy of the voltage amplitude and angle estimations, reducing the relative error by 14–73%. Additionally, it is shown that TPE outperforms simpler methods like Random Search in hyperparameter optimization. The results also reveal connections between the distribution system size and optimal hyperparameters, such as batch size, learning rate, and hidden layer configuration. The proposed non-iterative algorithm, combined with the parallel computation capabilities of deep neural networks utilizing GPU, resulted in four orders of magnitude improvement in runtime. These advancements make the proposed approach a valuable tool for renewable energy integration planning and real-time monitoring, highlighting its potential for practical applications in the power industry.
