Improving the Generalisability of Deep Learning NILM Algorithms using One-Shot Transfer Learning: Can one-shot transfer learning be leveraged to enhance the performance of a CNN-based NILM algorithm on unseen data?

Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) is a technique used to disaggregate household power consumption data into individual appliance components without the need for dedicated meters for each appliance. This paper focuses on improving the generalizability of NILM algorithms to unseen households using Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) and one...

Convolutional neural network for predicting crack pattern and stress-crack width curve of air-void structure in 3D printed concrete

Extrusion-based 3D concrete printing (3DCP) results in deposited materials with complex microstructures that have high porosity and distinct anisotropy. Due to the material heterogeneity and rapid growth of cracks, fracture analysis in these air-void structures is often complex, resulting in a high computational cost. This study proposes a...

Surrogate convolutional neural network models for steady computational fluid dynamics simulations

A convolution neural network (CNN)-based approach for the construction of reduced order surrogate models for computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations is introduced; it is inspired by the approach of Guo, Li, and Iori [X. Guo, W. Li, and F. Iorio, Convolutional neural networks for steady flow approximation, in Proceedings of the 22nd ACM...

Weight Swapping: A new method for Supervised Domain Adaptation in Computer Vision using Discrete Optimization

Training Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models is difficult when there is a lack of labeled training data and no unlabeled data is available. A popular method for this is domain adaptation where the weights of a pre-trained CNN model are transferred to the problem setup. The model is pre-trained on the same task but in a different domain...
