Circuit topology aware GNN-based multi-variable model for DC-DC converters dynamics prediction in CCM and DCM.

A regression model based on graph neural network, tailored for electric circuit dynamics prediction is introduced, providing converter performance predictions on converter circuit level and internal parameter variations. Regardless of the number of components or connections present in a converter circuit, the proposed model can be readily scaled to incorporate different converter circuit topologies. Moreover, the model can be used to analyse converter circuits with any number of circuit components and any control parameters variation. To enable the use of machine learning methods and applications, all physical and switching circuit properties such as converter circuits operating in continuous conduction mode or discontinuous conduction mode are accurately mapped to graph representation. Three of the most common converters (Buck, Boost, and Buck-boost) are used as example circuits applied to model and the target is to predict the gain and current ripples in inductor. The model achieves 99.51% on the R 2 measure and a mean square error of 0.0263. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
