Abstract

This work deals with the problem of automatic detection of device types given only the power consumption curve, which can be obtained by means of a cheap measurer applied to the device itself. We defined a novel method to detect these types and we describe it in details, providing ground truth evidence coming from the application of the method to real world data. We tested the method against two different set of data coming from two separate and different environments, the first located in Italy and the second in Germany, and we provide experimental results to support the method.
