NILMFormer: Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring that Accounts for Non-Stationarity

  • 用Transformer结合时间戳设计新型位置编码,应对数据分布漂移。
  • 在4个真实数据集上性能超越现有最佳方法,误差降低12%以上。
  • 已用于法国电力公司服务,支撑百万用户用电分析,适合能源领域应用。

全球已部署数以百万计的智能电表,记录单个家庭的总用电量。基于这些数据,电力公司可为用户提供电器能耗监控服务。传统方法依赖粗粒度月度用电和静态客户数据(如家电拥有情况)进行估算。非侵入式负荷监测(NILM)旨在将家庭总用电量分解为各电器的独立能耗。当前最先进(SotA)方法基于深度学习,处理整个家庭用电序列的子段。然而,真实世界电表数据具有非平稳性,导致每个子段内的数据分布发生漂移,严重影响模型性能。本文提出NILMFormer,一种基于Transformer的架构,引入新的子段平稳化/去平稳化机制以缓解分布漂移,并采用仅依赖子段时间戳信息的新型位置编码。在4个真实数据集上的实验表明,NILMFormer显著优于现有SotA方法。该方案已被部署为法国电力公司(EDF)用电监控服务的核心算法,为数百万客户提供详细电器能耗洞察。本论文发表于KDD 2025。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Millions of smart meters have been deployed worldwide, collecting the total power consumed by individual households. Based on these data, electricity suppliers offer their clients energy monitoring solutions to provide feedback on the consumption of their individual appliances. Historically, such estimates have relied on statistical methods that use coarse-grained total monthly consumption and static customer data, such as appliance ownership. Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) is the problem of disaggregating a household's collected total power consumption to retrieve the consumed power for individual appliances. Current state-of-the-art (SotA) solutions for NILM are based on deep-learning (DL) and operate on subsequences of an entire household consumption reading. However, the non-stationary nature of real-world smart meter data leads to a drift in the data distribution within each segmented window, which significantly affects model performance. This paper introduces NILMFormer, a Transformer-based architecture that incorporates a new subsequence stationarization/de-stationarization scheme to mitigate the distribution drift and that uses a novel positional encoding that relies only on the subsequence's timestamp information. Experiments with 4 real-world datasets show that NILMFormer significantly outperforms the SotA approaches. Our solution has been deployed as the backbone algorithm for EDF's (Electricité De France) consumption monitoring service, delivering detailed insights to millions of customers about their individual appliances' power consumption. This paper appeared in KDD 2025.
