The objective of this research is to evaluate various neural networks architectures for building energy analysis and clustering. We are looking to analyze patterns in dataset such as the PecanStreet data or the UT campus energy use data. Discovering these patterns will help customize energy supply and pave the way for smart buildings and smart city applications.
Qualified research assistants must meet the following criteria:
• CS/EE/ECE student or relevant coursework with applied ML/NN projects
•Proficient programmers (C/C++, Python), knowledge of ML/NN Libraries (scikit-learn, and/or PyTorch) is a strong plus
•Interest in building energy
•Responsible and timely, with the ability to work both independently and as a team
•Highly motivated, exceptional organizational skills, and extremely detail oriented
•Minimum 1-semester commitment
•Commitment of approximately 8-10 hours per week
