Optimal hyperparameters for random forest to predict leakage current alarm on premises

Abstract

While the number of private electrical facilities is increasing, there are not enough security personnel to perform the security work. In this paper, we propose a random forest model for predicting leakage current alarms in order to improve the efficiency of electrical safety operations. A random forest was created using periodic inspection data, alarm data, and meteorological data as explanatory variables, and generalization performance was evaluated by OOB-based F-measure. In order to obtain the highest performance, a grid search was performed to optimize the hyperparameters. As a result, it was possible to achieve alarm prediction with a certain level of performance. In addition, the optimal hyperparameters were found by grid search, and the F-measure was improved.
