Chapter- Introduction
1.1 Introduction:
In the contemporary times, consistent supply of electricity is the matter of utmost
importance in the modern and advance society. From the mid-1980, the mode of power
analysis has been transformed from methodology of formal mathematical modeling, which
was generated from multiple areas such as operations research, control theory and numeric
analysis. The need of power system is rapidly increasing in the geographical regions
(Lokman et al. 2019). Introduction of advanced technology is playing a major role in the way
of strengthening thee power system and solve different problems related to it such as control,
planning, scheduling, forecast, etc. In the contemporary times, artificial intelligence is serving
as one of the major tools in the decision making process and develop the building of
intelligent agents, which can receive inputs from the from the environment and take actions
and take action accordingly, which can affect the environment (van der and Doomernik
2017). Rapid development of artificial intelligence is playing a major role in the way of
deploying the intelligent agents, which are becoming highly relevant in the way of
completing the intellectual tasks.
1.2 Background of the study:
After the automation and information revolution, intelligence has become one of the
most important factors in the industrial revolution. Over the past few years, artificial
intelligence has generated widespread attention and industrialization at both domestic and
international level. During 2016, “National Artificial Intelligence and Development
Strategic Plan” has been developed by White House. In the year 2017, the national has been
developed by the French government (He et al. 2019). In the same year, “New Generation
Artificial Intelligence Development Plan” was released by China. In the contemporary
