An opportunistic activity-sensing approach to save energy in office buildings
Marija Milenkovic, Oliver Amft · 2013
In this work, we recognised office worker activities that are relevant for energy-related control of appliances and building systems using sensors that are commonly installed in new or refurbished office buildings. We considered desk-related activities and people count in office rooms, structured into desk- and room-cells. Recognition was performed using finite state machines (FSMs) and probabilistic layered hidden Markov models (LHMMs).
