ABSTRACT
We introduce the Plug-Level Appliance Identification Dataset (PLAID), a public and crowd-sourced dataset for load identification research consisting of short voltage and current measurements (in the order of a few seconds) for different residential appliances. The goal of PLAID is to provide a public library for high-resolution appliance measurements that can be integrated into existing or novel appliance identification algorithms. PLAID currently contains measurements for more than 200 different appliance instances, representing 11 appliance classes, and totaling more than a thousand records. In this demo we summarize the existing dataset, demonstrate how new records can be added to the library using a web interface and, finally, walk through a live example of how the library can be integrated into an existing non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) algorithm framework.

Towards user identification in the home from appliance usage patterns
UbiComp '13 Adjunct: Proceedings of the 2013 ACM conference on Pervasive and ubiquitous computing adjunct publicationWe explore the feasibility of identifying users from the unique patterns they exhibit when interacting with an individual electrical appliance in the home. We evaluate the effectiveness of a supervised learning based approach for user identification ...
Machine learning approaches for non-intrusive home absence detection based on appliance electrical use
AbstractHome absence detection is an emerging field on smart home installations. Identifying whether or not the residents of the house are present, is important in numerous scenarios. Possible scenarios include but are not limited to: elderly ...
Highlights- Home absence detection using appliance electricity use is feasible.
- Most common ...
Nonintrusive appliance load monitoring: Review and outlook
Consumer systems for home energy management can provide significant energy saving. Such systems may be based on nonintrusive appliance load monitoring (NIALM), in which individual appliance power consumption information is disaggregated from single-...
