Effective non-intrusive load monitoring of buildings based on a novel multi-descriptor fusion with dimensionality reduction حسب Yassine Himeur (14158821)

"…This paper presents an efficient non-intrusive load monitoring framework that consists of the following main components: (i) a novel fusion of multiple time-domain features is proposed to extract appliance fingerprints; (ii) a dimensionality reduction scheme is introduced to be applied to the fused time-domain features, which relies on fuzzy-neighbors preserving analysis based QR-decomposition. …"

Exploring the potential of applying Sustainable Retrofitting Policies & Regulations for existing low-rise small-scale Residential Buildings (Villas) in Dubai, UAE حسب Albedwawi, Khulood

"…Due to the different electricity rates for locals and non-locals, mandating these measures will not be economically feasible and the time of the payback period is too long. However, in nonlocal families, mandating more than only one retrofit measure can be effective as it is shown when combing changing the AC set point and adding roof insulation which leads to savings that can be paid back in less than two years. …"
