XGBoost energy consumption prediction based on multi-system data HVAC
This addresses energy efficiency for public building operators, but appears incremental as it combines existing methods (XGBoost and LightGBM) on new data.
The paper tackled energy consumption prediction for HVAC systems in public buildings by developing a model that extracts features from large datasets using XGBoost, trains multiple models, and fuses them with LightGBM predictions using MAE, successfully applying it to a self-developed IoT platform.
The energy consumption of the HVAC system accounts for a significant portion of the energy consumption of the public building system, and using an efficient energy consumption prediction model can assist it in carrying out effective energy-saving transformation. Unlike the traditional energy consumption prediction model, this paper extracts features from large data sets using XGBoost, trains them separately to obtain multiple models, then fuses them with LightGBM's independent prediction results using MAE, infers energy consumption related variables, and successfully applies this model to the self-developed Internet of Things platform.
