Overview
Machine Learning and Data Analysis for Energy Efficiency in Buildings: Intelligent Operation, Maintenance, and Optimization of Building Energy Systems introduces data basics, from selecting and evaluating data to the identification and repair of abnormalities. Other sections cover data mining applied to energy forecasting, including long- and short-term predictions, the introduction of occupant-focused behavior analysis, and current methods for supply and demand applications. Case studies are included in each part to assist in evaluation and implementation of these techniques across building energy systems. Working from the fundamentals of big data analysis to a complete method for building energy assessment, flexibility, and management, this book provides students, researchers, and professionals with an essential, cutting-edge resource on this important technology.

Author Information
Zhao Tianyi is the Deputy Dean and an Associate Professor of the School of Civil Engineering at Dalian University of Technology. He is the Group Lead of the On-line Automation Solutions Institute for Sustainability in Energy and Buildings (OASIS-EB). This group focuses on investigating intelligent regulation and control methods for building energy systems, incorporating advanced technologies such as the Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence. He has published over 100 peer-reviewed articles in journals. Zhang Chengyu is a PhD student at the Institute for Building Energy and member of the Online Automation Solutions Institute for Sustainability in Energy and Buildings, both at the Dalian University of Technology, China. His main research focus is on energy application for sustainable intelligent buildings, with particular emphasis on energy consumption prediction and anomaly detection and repair of energy monitoring data. One of his most significant contributions in academia is the development of a novel model for building occupant energy-use behavior, which has been integrated into energy consumption prediction to enhance its effectiveness. Additionally, he has collaborated with colleagues to propose strategies for building energy conservation based on adjusting energy-use behaviors and has put forward a comprehensive approach for detecting and repairing anomalies in energy monitoring data. Ben Jiang is a PhD Candidate at the Dalian University of Technology and a member of the Online Automation Solutions Institute for Sustainability in Energy and Buildings, China, led by Professor Zhao. His research focuses on building intelligence applications, including the prediction and analysis of building energy consumption and related parameters.
