Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring is a single-point metering approach to identify and to monitor household appliances according their appliance power characteristics. In this paper, we propose an unsupervised classification approach for appliance state estimation of on/off-appliances modeled by a Hidden Markov Model (HMM). To estimate the states of appliances, we use the sequential Monte Carlo or particle filtering (PF) method. The proposed algorithm is tested with MATLAB simulations and is evaluated according to correctly or incorrectly detected on/off events.
