Abstract
The development of smart homes, equipped with devices connected to the Internet of Things (IoT), has opened up new possibilities to monitor and control energy consumption. In this context, non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) techniques have emerged as a promising solution for the disaggregation of total energy consumption into the consumption of individual appliances. The classification of electrical appliances in a smart home remains a challenging task for machine learning algorithms. In the present study, we propose comparing and evaluating the performance of two different algorithms, namely Multi-Label K-Nearest Neighbors (MLkNN) and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), for NILM in two different scenarios: without and with data augmentation (DAUG). Our results show how the classification results can be better interpreted by generating a scalogram image from the power consumption signal data and processing it with CNNs. The results indicate that the CNN model with the proposed data augmentation performed significantly higher, obtaining a mean F1-score of 0.484 (an improvement of +0.234), better than the other methods. Additionally, after performing the Friedman statistical test, it indicates that it is significantly different from the other methods compared. Our proposed system can potentially reduce energy waste and promote more sustainable energy use in homes and buildings by providing personalized feedback and energy savings tips.
期刊介绍：
Integrated Computer-Aided Engineering (ICAE) was founded in 1993. "Based on the premise that interdisciplinary thinking and synergistic collaboration of disciplines can solve complex problems, open new frontiers, and lead to true innovations and breakthroughs, the cornerstone of industrial competitiveness and advancement of the society" as noted in the inaugural issue of the journal.
The focus of ICAE is the integration of leading edge and emerging computer and information technologies for innovative solution of engineering problems. The journal fosters interdisciplinary research and presents a unique forum for innovative computer-aided engineering. It also publishes novel industrial applications of CAE, thus helping to bring new computational paradigms from research labs and classrooms to reality. Areas covered by the journal include (but are not limited to) artificial intelligence, advanced signal processing, biologically inspired computing, cognitive modeling, concurrent engineering, database management, distributed computing, evolutionary computing, fuzzy logic, genetic algorithms, geometric modeling, intelligent and adaptive systems, internet-based technologies, knowledge discovery and engineering, machine learning, mechatronics, mobile computing, multimedia technologies, networking, neural network computing, object-oriented systems, optimization and search, parallel processing, robotics virtual reality, and visualization techniques.
