Method and system for generating electric load models
View Patent ↗A method for generating electric load models that includes receiving a plurality of measurements representative of input provided by a power source to electric loads is provided. The method includes generating a plurality of combination of model loads and assigning a contribution factor to each model load in each combination. The method further includes computing a match index for each combination for each measurement. The match index is computed by comparing a predicted output of each combination with an actual output generated by the electric loads for each input represented by each measurement. Furthermore, the method includes computing a first likelihood index for each combination based on the match index for each combination for the plurality of measurements. The method also includes computing a second likelihood index for each contribution factor in each combination based on the match index for each combination.
