Optimization of thermal comfort, indoor quality, and energy-saving in campus classroom through deep Q learning

This study develops a control algorithm for optimization the energy consumptions of air-conditioning and exhaust fans through Deep Q-Learning in reinforcement learning. The proposed agent is able to balance indoor air quality (CO2), thermal comfort, and energy consumption. The algorithm was first tr...
