Decision Tree and SVM-Based Data Analytics for Theft Detection in Smart Grid.

Nontechnical losses, particularly due to electrical theft, have been a major concern in power system industries for a long time. Large-scale consumption of electricity in a fraudulent manner may imbalance the demand-supply gap to a great extent. Thus, there arises the need to develop a scheme that can detect these thefts precisely in the complex power networks. So, keeping focus on these points, t...
