Seminar 32 -- Smart and Resilient Buildings: Examples of Applied Research in STBE Journal

This product is a zip file that contains files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker, PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3 format) as noted.This seminar provides an overview of selected research papers from the STBE journal. The speakers will first introduce a stochastic model for typical building electricity load profile analysis to promote comprehensive management of smart buildings. Then, a Cosine-based correlation information entropy approach for building automatic fault detection baseline construction will be discussed. Finally, a study on an assessment of efficiency and stability for reinforcement learning-based building control models, will be presented. These are examples of the variety and depth of the cutting-edge technical information and case studies in the HVAC&R industry that ASHRAE members can access through the STBE articles.1.
