This paper utilizes a class of modern machine learning methods for estimating a transient stability boundary that is viewed as a function of power system variables. The simultaneous variable selection and estimation approach is employed yielding a substantially reduced complexity transient stability boundary model. The model is easily interpretable and yet possesses a stronger prediction power than techniques known in the power engineering literature so far. The accuracy of our methods is demonstrated using a 470-bus system.
