In order to evaluate the effectiveness of the algorithms and the performance about the disaggregation task, both aggregate and appliance specific data, which represent the ground truth, are required. + ## Data Acquisition -About Linc device.. + ## Data Structure -Parameters.. +Time +Current +Crest_factor_current +Energy +Inrush_current +Power_factor +Thd_current +Power_apparent +Power_real ## Dataset Descriptions
