The use of visualization techniques for extracting behavioural patterns in residential customers

Abstract

In this thesis complex visualization techniques are used to represent analyse and cluster hourly load curves obtained from residential customers provided by the company Electra Norte, as well as simulated curves obtained from a simulation software previously developed called GenMix. The validation of the previously developed software (GenMix) is done comparing the real and simulated data by means of the visualization tool. The pattern extraction technique is validated using visualization techniques, considering that the parameters for generating the simulated data are known
