Occupancy and indoor environment quality sensing for smart buildings
TL;DR: In this article, an Autoregressive Hidden Markov Model (ARHMM) has been developed to model the occupancy pattern, based on the measurements, given its ability to establish correlations among the observed variables.

Occupancy estimation for smart buildings by an auto-regressive hidden Markov model
TL;DR: Results and numerical simulation demonstrate that the auto-regressive hidden Markov model (ARHMM) is more effective in estimating the number of occupants in the laboratory than the HMM algorithm, especially when the occupancy level fluctuates frequently.
Journal ArticleDOI
Architectural design of a sensory node controller for optimized energy utilization in sensor networks
Robert X. Gao,Zhaoyan Fan +1 more
TL;DR: This paper investigates several fundamental aspects regarding the architectural design of a sensory node controller (SNOC), the key element in a large-scale sensor network that coordinates the operation of individual sensors and the communication among various sensing clusters to realize distributed intelligent sensing.
