From 6th to 7th of November, the 4th European Workshop on Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) was held in London, United Kingdom. This event brought together researchers and professionals to present and discuss latest developments in the area of NILM as well as its applications.
The sessions comprised topics such as commercial & industrial NILM, innovative algorithms, deep learning approaches, and evaluation. Also, several vendors such as Voltaware, Qualisteo or Verv introduced their latest products.
In the poster & demo session, Christoph presented a poster on "Appliance Detection in Power Meter Readings". The poster illustrates how correlation can be utilised to detect electrical appliances in power readings. Especially for hardware with limited computational resources this approach shows promising results. For more information about the presented work refer to our paper on correlation filters for appliance detection.

A selection of the workshop's talks is available in form of a Youtube playlist.
The next major NILM event will be the International Workshop on Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring, which will take place in late February / early March 2018 in Austin, Texas.
