US 11,455,341 B2 · Occupant comfort model extrapolation

Abstract

Method, apparatus and computer program product for comfort model extrapolation. For example, the apparatus includes at least one processor and at least one non-transitory memory including program code. The at least one non-transitory memory and the program code are configured to, with the at least one processor, obtain a plurality of known comfort models including: one or more cross-space comfort models each associated with a primary occupant profile and a known spatial element of one or more known spatial elements, one or more cross-profile comfort models each associated with a secondary occupant profile and an unknown spatial element, and one or more cross-context comfort models each associated with a secondary occupant profile and a known spatial element; and generate a unknown comfort model for the primary occupant profile and the unknown spatial element based on the plurality of known comfort models.

Dependent claims

A computer-implemented method for generating an unknown comfort model for a primary occupant profile with respect to an unknown spatial element, the computer-implemented method comprising:

obtaining a plurality of known comfort models, wherein the plurality of known comfort models comprise:
(i) one or more cross-space comfort models each associated with the primary occupant profile and a known spatial element of one or more known spatial elements, (ii) one or more cross-profile comfort models each associated with a secondary occupant profile of one or more secondary occupant profiles and the unknown spatial element, and (iii) one or more cross-context comfort models each associated with the secondary occupant profile of the one or more secondary occupant profiles and the known spatial element of the one or more known spatial elements;
extrapolating at least one of the plurality of known comfort models to generate the unknown comfort model;
and
implementing a comfort model to control one or more spatial variables based on the unknown comfort model.

(i) one or more cross-space comfort models each associated with the primary occupant profile and a known spatial element of one or more known spatial elements, (ii) one or more cross-profile comfort models each associated with a secondary occupant profile of one or more secondary occupant profiles and the unknown spatial element, and (iii) one or more cross-context comfort models each associated with the secondary occupant profile of the one or more secondary occupant profiles and the known spatial element of the one or more known spatial elements;
extrapolating at least one of the plurality of known comfort models to generate the unknown comfort model;
and
implementing a comfort model to control one or more spatial variables based on the unknown comfort model.

2 more elements

A non-transitory computer storage medium comprising instructions configured to cause one or more processors to at least perform a method for generating an unknown comfort model for a primary occupant profile with respect to an unknown spatial element, the method comprising:

obtaining a plurality of known comfort models, wherein the plurality of known comfort models comprise:
(i) one or more cross-space comfort models each associated with the primary occupant profile and a known spatial element of one or more known spatial elements, (ii) one or more cross-profile comfort models each associated with a secondary occupant profile of one or more secondary occupant profiles and the unknown spatial element, and (iii) one or more cross-context comfort models each associated with the secondary occupant profile of the one or more secondary occupant profiles and the known spatial element of the one or more known spatial elements;
extrapolating at least one of the plurality of known comfort models to generate the unknown comfort model;
and
implementing a comfort model to control one or more spatial variables based on the unknown comfort model.
