Abstract
The present invention is directed to systems and methods for performing energy disaggregation of a whole-house energy usage waveform, based at least in part on the whole-house energy usage profile, training data, and predetermined generic models, including: a module for pairing impulses identified in the whole-house energy usage waveform to indicate an appliance cycle, pairing impulses with at least one up transition with at least one down transition; a module for bundling impulses that are representative of an appliance cycle; a classification module, which upon determination of a type of appliance associated with bundles, is configured to classify the bundles of transitions in accordance with bundles exhibited by similar appliances with similar characteristics; and utilizing such pairing module and module for bundling to perform energy disaggregation. Moreover, the present invention sets forth graphical user interfaces for the presentation of such data and the receipt of user-supplied validation and information.
