Faculty Vacancy at Carnegie Mellon University

Mario Bergès asked me to share the following position at CMU:

Carnegie Mellon University's Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering (CEE) is inviting applications for a faculty position at all ranks (Assistant, Associate or Full Professor). They're seeking candidates with expertise in decarbonisation of the built environment and/or adaptation to climate change with a strong focus on engineering resilience. The ideal candidate should be able to model natural and/or engineered systems and their response, while at the same time propose technical engineering solutions to improve adaptation, resilience and/or decarbonisation efforts. They are specifically interested in candidates who are applying computational approaches, AI, digital twins, and systems modelling techniques in these areas. Through their research, education and service, candidates should also be able to support the department’s efforts in leading the world to a sustainable, resilient, equitable and inclusive future.

Key details:

  • Location: Pittsburgh, PA, USA

DEDDIAG data set released

Marc Wenninger, Andreas Maier & Jochen Schmidt have recently released DEDDIAG, a domestic electricity demand dataset of individual appliances in Germany. The data set contains recordings from 15 homes over a period of up to 3.5 years, in which 50 appliances have been recorded at a frequency of 1 Hz. The data set focuses on appliances of significance for load-shifting purposes, such as dishwashers, washing machines and refrigerators. One home also includes three-phase mains readings that can be used for disaggregation tasks. Additionally, DEDDIAG contains manual ground truth event annotations for 14 appliances, that provide precise start and stop timestamps. The authors have also released source code of the data collection system, as well as a python command line tool for loading the data.

NILM 2020 to be held online in November

The NILM 2020 Workshop will be a one day online conference held during the week commencing 16 November 2020. The workshop will be jointly organised by the International and European NILM Workshop teams, and will be free to attend. For the first time, the event will appear as a workshop of the larger ACM BuildSys conference, and accepted papers will be published in the ACM digital library. The paper submission deadline is 21 August, although abstracts should be registered by 14 August. Further details (including the conference date, registration and paper submission) will appear on the NILM 2020 Workshop website as they are finalised.

For context, this workshop represents the culmination of the 5th International NILM Workshop and the 7th European Workshop, as shown by the table below.


I look forward to seeing you online!
