Methods, systems, and computer program products for cognitive disambiguation of problem-solving tasks involving a power grid are provided herein. A computer-implemented method includes capturing user feedback pertaining to relevance of remote terminal unit measurements related to a grid event through user interface interactions carried out by the user, wherein the user interface is communicatively linked to at least one computing device; automatically inferring rules related to the grid event to curate remote terminal unit measurements across iterations of analysis by recognizing irrelevant data and/or distractions in a visual display associated with the user interface, wherein said automatically inferring comprises implementing machine learning via the at least one computing device based on the user feedback; and outputting candidate solutions to a problem-solving task involving the grid based on the inferred rules, wherein said outputting is carried out by the at least one computing device.
