ADAPT: Physics-Aware Diffusion-based World Models for Adaptive Predictive Transferable HVAC Control
Xu Yang, Kailai Sun, Dianyu Zhong +1
Buildings account for roughly one-third of global energy consumption and CO emissions. Optimizing indoor climate systems plays a critical role for urban climate mitigation alig…
Experimental study on surveillance video-based indoor occupancy measurement with occupant-centric control
Irfan Qaisar, Kailai Sun, Qingshan Jia +1
Accurate occupancy information is essential for closed-loop occupant-centric control (OCC) in smart buildings. However, existing vision-based occupancy measurement methods often st…
Hierarchical Control Framework Integrating LLMs with RL for Decarbonized HVAC Operation
Dianyu Zhong, Tian Xing, Kailai Sun +6
Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems account for a substantial share of building energy consumption. Environmental uncertainty and dynamic occupancy behavior b…
Towards pedestrian head tracking: A benchmark dataset and a multi-source data fusion network
Kailai Sun, Xinwei Wang, Shaobo Liu +3
Pedestrian detection and tracking in crowded video sequences have many applications, including autonomous driving, robot navigation and pedestrian flow analysis. However, detecting…
