Machine learning for estimation of building energy consumption and performance: a review

TL;DR: A substantial review on the four main ML approaches including artificial neural network, support vector machine, Gaussian-based regressions and clustering, which have commonly been applied in forecasting and improving building energy performance are provided.
Journal ArticleDOI

On-Demand Monitoring of Construction Projects through a Game-Like Hybrid Application of BIM and Machine Learning

TL;DR: A framework and a proof of concept prototype for on-demand automated simulation of construction projects, integrating some cutting edge IT solutions, namely image processing, machine learning, BIM and Virtual Reality are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of CAD and manual sketching tools for teaching architectural design

TL;DR: This paper discusses the identified advantages and challenges of current design media and then proposes an alternative VR-based design interface for enhancing cognition and communication among designers during the conceptual design phase.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tuning machine learning models for prediction of building energy loads

TL;DR: This study investigated the accuracy of most popular ML models in the prediction of buildings heating and cooling loads carrying out specific tuning for each ML model and using two simulated building energy data generated in EnergyPlus and Ecotect and compared the results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impacts of VR 3D sketching on novice designers’ spatial cognition in collaborative conceptual architectural design

TL;DR: In this article, a haptic-based VR 3D sketching interface for integrating novice designers' cognitions and actions to improve design creativity has been proposed, which can help the development of cutting-edge hapticbased collaborative virtual environments in architectural education and associated professions.
