Abstract: The loads that have several working states cannot be accurately distinguished by the conventional Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) methods. This paper proposed an improved NILM method based on the Resnet18 Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm to address the misidentification of multi-state appliances. The V-I trajectories of loads are at first classified with Resnet18. Then, load features with low redundancy is obtained through the Max-Relevance and Min-Redundancy (mRMR) feature selection algorithm from various operating states of loads that were not successfully classified. The SVM algorithm is developed for two-stage identification to achieve high accuracy of classification for identifying the multi-state appliances quickly. This proposed NILM method can significantly improve the accuracy of identification for multi-state loads. Finally, the Plaid dataset is acquired to validate the effectiveness and accuracy of the proposed method.
