Francesco Conti
I am a Data Scientist who loves deep learning, MLOps, and working with data. I enjoy participating in conferences and competing in Machine Learning challenges to continually improve my skills. I also love traveling and visiting new places around the world.
I began my career as a Telecommunications Engineer with a background in Statistical Signal Processing, pretty tough stuff! After working for 3 years in university research and industry R&D, I joined AgileLab, an Italian consulting company with the mission of "elevating the data engineering game and empowering companies to shape their future around data."
I believe that successful data science projects should be built on solid software engineering and data engineering practices to ensure effectiveness and reliability.
Sessions
Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) is a key technique in data-driven energy management and home automation, aimed at disaggregating energy consumption to identify active appliances in households and quantify their energy usage. This presentation:
- Provides an overview of NILM, highlighting its advantages and reviewing state-of-the-art deep learning algorithms developed for this purpose.
- Examines smart meters and IoT devices in energy systems, with a focus on the Chain2 protocol used in Italian energy systems. This event-based protocol generates low-volume data, enabling real-time energy monitoring and alerting.
- Presents examples of deep learning models trained on real-world IoT sensor data from energy meters, demonstrating their application in energy disaggregation.
This session offers an insightful overview of real-world deep learning applications in energy systems. While tailored for data scientists and data engineers interested in these fields, no prior knowledge is required. Join to explore how these technologies are driving energy optimization, cost reduction, and enhancing personal energy consumption awareness.
