1. This document proposes using Cognitive Artificial Intelligence (CAI) using a Knowledge Growing System (KGS) approach to interpret dissolved gas analysis (DGA) data and identify transformer faults.
2. CAI works by fusing information from multiple data sources to extract new information with a Degree of Certainty (DoC). It can identify faults from both single observations and time-series data.
3. The document tests CAI on a published DGA dataset using the Doernenburg Ratio method for interpretation. CAI achieved an accurate identification rate of 115 out of 117 samples, outperforming Fuzzy Inference Systems and Artificial Neural Networks on the same data.
