Abstract:

Non-intrusive appliance load monitoring is the process of disaggregating a household's total electricity consumption into its contributing appliances. In this paper we propose an approach by which individual appliances can be iteratively separated from an aggregate load. Unlike existing approaches, our approach does not require training data to be collected by sub-metering individual appliances, nor does it assume complete knowledge of the appliances present in the household. Instead, we propose an approach in which prior models of general appliance types are tuned to specific appliance instan

Abstract:

This paper presents disaggregation of appliances’ energy consumption for a residential house using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). The disaggregation process provides useful information about the time and duration of each appliance on when they are switched on, which can contribute to close monitoring of appliance activities in a house. Firstly, the data of aggregated electricity loads comprising six different appliances is measured and plotted based on total power (Ptotal) over time. The data is then formulated based on combinatorial optimization (CO) problem which represents the load disa

Abstract:

IoT has become an integrated part of our lives changing ways in which we operate our everyday appliances. In addition to making our home appliances smart, it has become a common trend for companies to adopt industry 4.0, which uses various sensors to monitor the equipment, machinery, and the work environment. We often come across multiple brands which make smart appliances but each brand comes with its separate mobile application for the appliance's operation. This requires us to switch between Apps to control these appliances if we at all remember which App controls which appliance. We intend

Currently, due to the widespread population growth, there is a widespread concern about an electricity shortage. As a result, smart devices have evolved and gained significant attention to reduce power consumption in home appliances due to electricity shortages.

To overcome these challenges, this study proposed a hardware-based remote-control system that operates both in autonomous and semiautonomous modes to control home appliances based on environmental conditions.

Abstract:

Non-intrusive load monitoring, a convenient way to discern the energy consumption of a house, has been studied extensively. However, most research works have been carried out based on a hypothetical condition that each electric appliance has only one running state. This leads to low identification accuracy for multi-state electric appliances. To deal with this problem, a method for identifying the type and state of electric appliances based on a power time series is proposed in this paper.

Abstract:

This article showcases a simplified and customized appliance named as ‘tongue cave’ for tongue thrusting habit with the usage of TADS in the anterior part of the palate. This appliance gives better adaptation and comfort during the wear than the other appliances such as conventional tongue crib, tongue beads and TAD supported tongue crib appliances used before.

Abstract:

Increasing environmental concerns have resulted in consumers indulging in conserving energy by curtailing energy usage rather than switching to energy efficient practices. Energy efficient appliances (EEAs) offer the dual advantages of appliance usage with reduced energy consumption. Research suggests that use of such appliances, in residences is limited. This study was thus undertaken to understand individual resident's awareness towards EEAs and factors influencing their purchase. A qualitative approach consisting of 31 personal interviews were conducted with individuals from socio-economic

Commercialisation has had profound effect on how dental services are provided. Many of the appliances and treatment modalities are market driven at exorbitant prices leaving the lower socioeconomic status people stigmatized. This paper is an attempt to revisit the simple removable appliance, providing limited corrective orthodontics in cases of mild to moderate malocclusion, which can be a justified as an alternative to complex appliances. This paper presents a case of a young girl with single anterior tooth crossbite, which was corrected by a removable appliance. An expansion appliance incorp

Abstract:

ABSTRACT The effect of the Twin Block functional orthodontic appliances is mostly dento-alveolar with small skeletal effect. There are certain clinical indications where functional appliances can be used successfully in class II malocclusion, e.g., in a growing patient. The use of these appliances is greatly dependent on the patient’s compliance, and they simplify the fixed appliance phase. The use of functional jaw orthopedics, at the correct time during growth, can ultimately result in achieving a broad beautiful smile, an excellent functional occlusion, a full face with a beautiful jaw line

Abstract:

A core aim in stoma care is to ensure the appliance (also known as a pouch or bag) establishes and maintains a secure seal, and so identifying the appropriate appliance for an individual ostomate is vital. This article presents a summary of the latest available range of stoma appliances on the market. There are two types of pouching systems: one and two piece. There are three main types of stoma appliances: closed, drainable and urostomy. Stoma care nurses need to be well informed about stoma appliance innovation, so that they can advise patients on what appliance is best for them. It is also

Abstract:

Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) provides a cost-effective solution for smart services across numerous appliances by inferring appliance-level information from mains electrical measurements. With the rapid growth in appliance diversity, continual learning that adapts to new appliances while retaining knowledge of previously learned appliances is of great interest. However, existing methods can handle only a few new appliance types and suffer from high computational complexity and data leakage risks. Therefore, an analytic continual learning-based (ACL) NILM method is proposed. The method e

In the process of orthodontic treatment, root parallelism is related to the relapse of extraction spaces, black triangles, and periodontal health. However, there are few studies on root parallelism in extraction cases with different types of appliances. The objective was to compare the root parallelism in extraction cases treated with clear aligners vs. those treated with fixed appliances by measuring the differences per extraction site and to access the root-movement control capacity of both orthodontic appliances.

Abstract:

A clear overlay appliance is a type of a removable appliance made from transparent thermoplastic plastic film that covers the entire dentition to move the teeth. It is one of the most favored orthodontic methods opted for by adult patients; this treatment is esthetic, does not cause discomfort and allows oral hygiene to be easily managed when compared to other conventional fixed treatment methods. However, the use of clear overlay appliances, such as invisalign or clear aligner, is associated with various clinical challenges. In particular, the appliances require longer treatment periods compa

Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) aims to decompose aggregated electrical usage signal into appliance-specific power consumption and it amounts to a classical example of blind source separation tasks. Leveraging recent progress on deep learning techniques, we design a new neural NILM model {\em Multi-State Dual CNN} (MSDC). Different from previous models, MSDC explicitly extracts information about the appliance's multiple states and state transitions, which in turn regulates the prediction of signals for appliances. More specifically, we employ a dual-CNN architecture: one CNN for outputtin

Abstract:

Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) increases awareness on user energy usage patterns. In this paper, an efficient and highly accurate NILM method is proposed featuring condensed representation, super-state and fusion of two deep learning based models. Condensed representation helps the two models perform more efficiently and preserve longer-term information, while super-state helps the model to learn correlations between appliances. The first model is a deep user model that learns user appliances usage patterns to predict the next appliance usage behavior based on past behaviors by capturing
