Automatic Fault Classification in Photovoltaic Modules Using Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Model, Generative Adversarial Networks, and Convolutional Neural Networks by Carlos Roberto da Silveira Junior, Carlos Eduardo Rocha Sousa, Ricardo Henrique Fonseca Alves

“…Unfortunately, this is not always feasible owing to the limited availability of publicly accessible datasets for PV thermographic data and the unequal distribution of different faults in real-world systems. In this study, three data augmentation techniques—geometric transformations (GTs), generative adversarial networks (GANs), and the denoising diffusion probabilistic model (DDPM)—were combined with a CNN to classify faults in PV modules through thermographic images and identify the type of fault in 11 different classes (i.e., soiling, shadowing, and diode). …”
