We used a wireless sensor network, which measured:
We know the electric consumption.
We transformed the data to fit a classification problem.
We grouped the samples by intervals of energy consumption. Each one being a class in the final dataset.
So for example, between 0 and 200Wh belongs to class 0, between 200 and 400 to class 1 etc.
We have a total of 5 classes.
After training, we are able to predict future energy use.
