Abstract

With the development of science and technology, the application in artificial intelligence has been more and more popular, as well as smart home has become a hot topic. And pattern recognition adapting to smart home attracts more attention, while the improvement of the accuracy of recognition is an important and difficult issue of smart home. In this paper, the characteristics of electrical appliances are extracted from the load curve of household appliances, and a fast and efficient home appliance recognition algorithm is proposed based on the advantage of classification of ELM (Extreme Learning Machine). At the same time, the sampling frequency with low rate is mentioned in this paper, which can obtain the required data through intelligent hardware directly, as well as reduce the cost of investment. And the intelligent hardware is
designed by our team, which is wireless sensor network (WSN) composed by a lot of wireless sensors. Experiments in this paper show that the proposed method can accurately determine the
using electrical appliances. And greatly improve the accuracy of identification, which can further improve the popularity of smart home.
