The energy monitoring of heritage buildings has, to date, been governed by methodologies and standards that have been defined in terms of sensors that record scalar magnitudes and that are placed in specific positions in the scene, thus recording only some of the values sampled in that space. In this paper, however, we present an alternative to the aforementioned technologies in the form of new sensors based on 3D computer vision that are able to record dense thermal information in a three-dimensional space. These thermal computer vision-based technologies (3D-TCV) entail a revision and updating of the current building energy monitoring methodologies. This paper provides a detailed definition of the most significant aspects of this new extended methodology and presents a case study showing the potential of 3D-TCV techniques and how they may complement current techniques. The results obtained lead us to believe that 3D computer vision can provide the field of building monitoring with a decisive boost, particularly in the case of heritage buildings.

Intrusive Load Monitoring (ILM) is a method to measure and collect the energy consumption data of individual appliances via smart plugs or smart sockets. A major challenge of ILM is automatic appliance identification, in which the system is able to determine automatically a label of the active appliance connected to the smart device. Existing ILM techniques depend on labels input by end-users and are usually under the supervised learning scheme. However, in reality, end-users labeling is laboriously rendering insufficient training data to fit the supervised learning models. In this work, we propose a semi-supervised learning (SSL) method that leverages rich signals from the unlabeled dataset and jointly learns the classification loss for the labeled dataset and the consistency training loss for unlabeled dataset. The samples fit into consistency learning are generated by a transformation that is built upon weighted versions of DTW Barycenter Averaging algorithm. The work is inspired by two recent advanced works in SSL in computer vision and combines the advantages of the two. We evaluate our method on the dataset collected from our developed Internet-of-Things based energy monitoring system in a smart home environment. We also examine the method’s performances on 10 benchmark datasets. As a result, the proposed method outperforms other methods on our smart appliance datasets and most of the benchmarks datasets, while it shows competitive results on the rest datasets.

This paper presents a novel abnormal data detecting algorithm based on the first order difference method, which could be used to find out outlier in building energy consumption platform real time. The principle and criterion of methodology are discussed in detail. The results show that outlier in cumulative power consumption could be detected by our method.
