Consumer Segmentation and Knowledge Extraction from Smart Meter and Survey Data
Résumé
Many electricity suppliers around the world are deploying smart meters to gather fine-grained spatiotemporal consumption data and to effectively manage the collective demand of their consumer base. In this paper, we introduce a structured framework and a discriminative index that can be used to segment the consumption data along multiple contextual dimensions such as locations, communities, seasons, weather patterns, holidays, etc. The generated segments can enable various higher-level applications such as usagespecific tariff structures, theft detection, consumer-specific demand response programs, etc. Our framework is also able to track consumers' behavioral changes, evaluate different temporal aggregations, and identify main characteristics which define a cluster.

Consumer behaviour
Consumer behaviour is the study of individuals, groups, or organisations and all the activities associated with the purchase, use and disposal of goods and services. Consumer behaviour consists of how the consumer's emotions, attitudes, and preferences affect buying behaviour. Consumer behaviour emerged in the 1940–1950s as a distinct sub-discipline of marketing, but has become an interdisciplinary social science that blends elements from psychology, sociology, social anthropology, anthropology, ethnography, ethnology, marketing, and economics (especially behavioural economics).
Segmentation (marketing)

Cette analyse se pratique en particulier mais pas uniquement dans le domaine du marketing. La segmentation dite « de ciblage », ou de détermination des couples produit-marché, vise à qualifier et à quantifier la relation qui peut exister entre le produit et son marché.
Temps (météorologie)
Le temps ou la météo est l'ensemble des conditions physiques des basses couches de l'atmosphère à un moment précis et en un point précis. Sont communément associées au temps les conditions météorologiques dont les effets peuvent être directement ressentis : ennuagement ou rayonnement solaire, température, vent, précipitations et également visibilité. L'étude et la prévision du temps s'appellent la météorologie.
