Abstract: To address the issue of imprecise fault diagnosis and forecasting in traction transformers, this study introduces a composite algorithm that integrates IGWO-SVM and QPSO-LSTM to realise the fault prediction of traction transformer. In this research, the focus is on utilising the concentration levels of dissolved gases in the oil of traction transformers as training data. A fault diagnosis model is constructed leveraging the capabilities of support vector machine (SVM) technology. To improve the performance of the model, this paper adopts an improved grey wolf optimisation algorithm (IGWO), which adjusts the parameters of SVM, enabling it to diagnose the faults of traction transformer effectively. To predict the faults of the traction transformer, this study introduces a model based on the long short-term memory (LSTM) network, which is further enhanced by the integration of the quantum particle swarm optimisation algorithm (QPSO). The QPSO algorithm is employed to fine-tune the parameters of the LSTM network, thereby enhancing the precision and efficiency of its predictive capabilities. Through experimental comparisons with alternative methodologies, the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed algorithm in fault diagnosis and prediction are verified, and the application value of the proposed algorithm in the field of traction transformer fault prediction is demonstrated.
