초록

이 연구는 스마트 미터 최종 사용자 수요 데이터의 특성을 조사하여 개별 가정용 물 사용량을 분류하는 새로운 접근방식을 도입한다. 여기서는 잘 알려진 비지도 기계학습법 중 하나인 K-means 알고리즘을 적용하여 각 가구별 물 사용 분류를 수행한다. 최종 사용자 수요의 물 사용강도와 지속 시간은 물 수요 패턴이 유사한 가구를 결정하는 주요한 특징으로 사용된다. 그 결과 21가구가 13개의 군집으로 분류되었고 각 군집은 1가구, 2가구, 3가구 또는 5가구로 구성된다. 수집된 데이터 및 최종 사용자의 물 수요 패턴과 관련하여 여러 가구가 동일한 클러스터로 분류되는 이유를 본 논문에서 소개한다.

This work introduces a new approach that classifies individual household water usage by examining the characteristics of smart meter end-user demand data. Here, one of the most well-known unsupervised machine learning, K-means algorithm, is applied to classify water consumptions by each household. The intensity and duration of end-user demands are used as main features to determine the households with similar water consumption pattern. The results showed that 21 households are classified into 13 clusters with each cluster having one, two, three, or five houses. The reasoning why multiple households are classified into the same cluster is described in this paper with respect to the collected data and end-user water consumption behavior.
