The integration of renewables and electric vehicles for instance leads to manifold changes in the system, e.g. participation in provision of ancillary services. To solve these challenges artificial intelligence provides a variety of solutions based on the increase in sensor data and computational capability. This paper provides a systematic overview of some of the most recent studies applying artificial intelligence methods to distribution power system operation published during the last 10 years. Based on that, a general guideline is developed to support the reader in finding a suitable AI technique for a specific operation task. Therefore, four general metrics are proposed to give an orientation of the requirements of each application. Thus, a conclusion can be drawn presenting suitable algorithms for each operation task.en2169-35362021150098150119IEEEhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Artificial intelligenceArtificial IntelligenceClustering algorithmsDistribution Power SystemsFuzzy LogicGuidelinesMachine LearningMeasurementMetaheuristicsPower System OperationPower system stabilityPower SystemsReinforcement learningSystematicsInformatikPhysikTechnikIngenieurwissenschaftenJournal Article10.15480/882.402310.1109/ACCESS.2021.312510210.15480/882.4023Journal Article
