On enabling collaborative non-intrusive load monitoring for sustainable smart cities.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Improving energy efficiency is a crucial aspect of building a sustainable smart city and, more broadly, relevant for improving environmental, economic, and social well-being. Non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) is a computing technique that estimates energy consumption in real-time and helps raise energy awareness among users to facilitate energy management. Most NILM solutions are still a single machine approach and do not fit well in smart cities. This work proposes a model-agnostic hybrid federated learning framework to collaboratively train NILM models for city-wide energy-saving applications. The framework supports both centralised and decentralised training modes to provide a cluster-based, customisable and optimal learning solution for users. The proposed framework is evaluated on a real-world energy disaggregation dataset. The results show that all NILM models trained in our proposed framework outperform the locally trained ones in accuracy. The results also suggest that the NILM models trained in our framework are resistant to privacy leakage.
