Machine learning algorithms for predicting occupants' behaviour in the manual control of windows for cross-ventilation in homes

The manual control of windows is one of the common adaptive behaviours for occupants to adjust their indoor environment in homes. The cross-ventilation by the window opening provides a useful tool ...
