Reliable state transition detection in off-the-shelf low frequency electric meters

Published: 01 November 2011 Publication History

Abstract

This poster paper describes a method for estimating the ON/OFF usage profile for appliances inside a home using an off-the-Unlike previous approaches that put their emphasis on the detection of individual events using high frequency sampling, our approach aims to reliably detect sequences of ON/OFF events from traces of less reliable ON/OFF events identified on data from low-frequency sampling. The proposed algorithm is evaluated experimentally using a collection of home appliances.
