The focus of this paper is on transient stability assessment (TSA) which analyses the ability of

a power system to maintain synchronism when subjected to sever transient disturbance.

transient disturbances include faults, loss of load, loss of generation and loss of system
components such as transformers or trans
computational intelligence and machine learning techniques, such as artificial neural
networks (ANNs), have been proposed as promising approaches for solving some complex
power system protection and control problems because their ability to quickly obtain the
nonlinear mapping relationship between the input data and the output
