• Abstract: This article presents a new methodology for extracting intervals when a home is vacant from low-frequency electricity consumption data. The approach combines multiple algorithms, including change point detection, classification, period detection, and periodic spikes retrieval. It shows encouraging results on both simulated and real consumption curves. This approach offers practical insights for optimizing energy use and holds potential benefits for residential consumers and utility companies in terms of energy cost reduction and sustainability. Further research is needed to enhance its applicability in diverse settings and with larger datasets.

  Time-series of power consumption over geographical areas are valuable data sources to study consumer behavior and guide energy policy decisions. However, publication of such data raises significant privacy issues, as it may reveal sensitive details about personal habits and lifestyles. We introduce emT (S Private Timeseries), a novel method for DP-compliant publication of electricity consumption data.

• Towards Sequence Utility Maximization under Utility Occupancy Measure [53.234101208024335]
  In the database, although utility is a flexible criterion for each pattern, it is a more absolute criterion due to neglect of utility sharing. We first define utility occupancy on sequence data and raise the problem of High Utility-Occupancy Sequential Pattern Mining. An algorithm called Sequence Utility Maximization with Utility occupancy measure (SUMU) is proposed.

  We present an unsupervised low-frequency method aimed at detecting and disaggregating the power used by Cumulative Water Heaters (CWH) in residential homes. Our model circumvents the inherent difficulty of unsupervised signal disaggregation by using both the shape of a power spike and its time of occurrence. Our model, despite its simplicity, offers promising applications: detection of mis-configured CWHs on off-peak contracts and slow performance degradation.
