Electricity Theft Detection with self-attention
share
In this work we propose a novel self-attention mechanism model to address electricity theft detection on an imbalanced realistic dataset that presents a daily electricity consumption provided by State Grid Corporation of China. Our key contribution is the introduction of a multi-head self-attention mechanism concatenated with dilated convolutions and unified by a convolution of kernel size 1. Moreover, we introduce a binary input channel (Binary Mask) to identify the position of the missing values, allowing the network to learn how to deal with these values. Our model achieves an AUC of 0.926 which is an improvement in more than 17% with respect to previous baseline work. The code is available on GitHub at https://github.com/neuralmind-ai/electricity-theft-detection-with-self-attention.
