Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is a core technology for demand response (DR) and energy conservation services. Traditional NILM methods are rarely combined with practical applications, and most studies aim to disaggregate the whole loads in a household, which leads to low identification accuracy. In this method, the event detection method is used to obtain the switching event sets of all loads, and the power consumption curves of independent unknown electrical appliances in a period are disaggregated by utilizing comprehensive features. A linear discriminant classifier group based on multi-feature global similarity is used for load identification. The uniqueness of our algorithm is that it designs an event detector based on steady-state segmentation and a linear discriminant classifier group based on multi-feature global similarity. The simulation is carried out on an open source data set. The results demonstrate the effectiveness and high accuracy of the multi-feature integrated classification (MFIC) algorithm by using the state-of-the-art NILM methods as benchmarks.
This paper analyzes the optimal path problem of AGV for smart factories, and propose a hybrid algorithm combining genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm. The objective function model is established according to the target optimization, the improved genetic algorithm and simulated annealing algorithm can be used to obtain better path and can effectively fall into local optimum. Simulation results show that this improved genetic simulated annealing algorithm is feasible in solving the AGV optimal path of smart factories.
Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is a core technology for demand response (DR) and energy conservation services. Traditional NILM methods are rarely combined with practical applications, and most studies aim to decompose the whole loads in a household, which leads to low identification accuracy. In this paper, an NILM approach based on multi-feature integrated classification (MFIC) is explored, which combines some non-electrical features such as ON/OFF duration, usage frequency of appliances, and usage period to improve load differentiability. The implementation of MFIC algorithm is consistent with traditional event-based method. The uniqueness of our algorithm is that it designs an event detector based on steady-state segmentation and a linear discriminant classifier group based on multi-feature global similarity. Simulation results using an open-access dataset demonstrate the effectiveness and high accuracy of MFIC algorithm, with the state-of-the-art NILM methods as benchmarks.
