Smart building with intelligent indoor lighting control system using reinforcement learning simulations by Chan, Keno Jia Nuo

“…Although the presence of wireless controls allows users to manually adjust the lighting intensity based on their preferences, this becomes a problem when there is more than one occupant in the environment due differences in lighting preferences. Hence, the most preferrable lighting control system is one that can consider the lighting preferences of all the occupants in the room and to some extent, minimize the energy wastage for lighting. …”
