An Open Problem: Energy Data Super-Resolution

In this notes paper, we present an open problem to the Buildsys community: energy data super-resolution, referring to the task of estimating the power consumption of a home at a higher resolution given the low-resolution power consumption. Super-resolution is especially useful when the smart meters collect data at a very low-sampling rate owing to a plethora of issues such as bandwidth, pricing, old hardware, among others. The problem is motivated by the success of image super resolution in the computer vision community.
