   Abstract:

Advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), as an essential component of the modern smart grid, collects a massive amount of high-frequency power consumption data from customers through smart meters. Smart meter data analytics utilizes data-driven approaches to extract actionable knowledge from smart meter data, aiming to improve the efficiency and sustainability of smart grid applications. In this talk, I will introduce novel machine learning and deep learning approaches developed by my research group for smart meter data analytics applications, including building occupancy detection, electricity theft detection, and non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM).
