An autonomous and intelligent expert system for residential water end-use classification

作者:

Highlights:

• Smart metering technology enables the capture of high resolution water consumption data.

• Intelligent algorithms developed to autonomously categorise single and combined water end use events.

• Hybrid combination of HMM, DTW and probability techniques applied to pattern recognition problem.

• Adaptive functionality embedded to enable model to self-train when applied in new cities or regions.

• User friendly expert system developed to autonomously disaggregate water consumption data into end use categories.
