INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS
Research Projet: Where does my electricity go? (Master Minor Thesis Project)
Purpose: To improve non-intrusive load monitoring algorithm that can decompose total electrical power consumption captured by smart meter into appliance level contribution by using richer transient features
Perform SQL query to export data from PostgreSQL database to CSV file
Use Python for data manipulation, data extraction, data analysis and feature engineering
Perform statistical analysis, implement and improve machine learning algorithm for the task of energy disaggregation
Key Achievements:
Improve machine learning algorithm for the task of load disaggregation by incorporating new features into Factorial Hidden Markov Models framework. The accuracy of the model increases to 90% from 70%
Method and Tools used:
Statistical methods: Factorial Hidden Markov Models
Software: MATLAB, Python
Project: Document Classification
Purpose: To find a classifier that can classify new articles into number of classes with the highest possible accuracy. It is a multi-class problem
Performed pre-processing task which include case normalization, tokenization, stop-words removal, most and least frequent words removal
Performed feature engineering by converting the final tokens into tf-idf and using word embedding
Developed, trained and compared machine learning algorithms using the extracted features. Word embedding and support vector machines resulted in the highest accuracy rate of 75%.
Method and Tools used:
Statistical methods: Word Embedding (Glove), Support Vector Machine, Neural Network
Software: R (e1071, tm), Python
