The increase in electrical metering has created tremendous quantities of data and, as a result, possibilities for deep insights into energy usage, better energy management, and new ways of energy conservation. As buildings are responsible for a significant portion of overall energy consumption, conservation efforts targeting buildings can provide tremendous effect on energy savings. Building energy monitoring enables identification of anomalous or unexpected behaviors which, when corrected, can lead to energy savings. Although the available data is large, the limited availability of labels makes anomaly detection difficult. This research proposes a deep semi-supervised convolutional neural network with confidence sampling for …

Theses and Dissertations

Anomaly detection in user access patterns using artificial neural networks is a novel way of combating the ever-present concern of computer network intrusion detection for many entities around the world. Anomaly detection is a technique in network security in which a profile is built around a user's normal daily actions. The data collected for these profiles can be as following: file access attempts; failed login attempts; file creations; file access failures; and countless others. This data is collected and used as training data for a neural network. There are many types of neural networks, such as multi-layer feed-forward network; recurrent …
