A review of reinforcement learning methodologies for controlling occupant comfort in buildings

TL;DR: A review of reinforcement learning methodologies for controlling occupant comfort in buildings and their applications in buildings shows positive results in terms of occupant comfort and educational outcomes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Resuspension of allergen-containing particles under mechanical and aerodynamic disturbances from human walking

TL;DR: In this paper, the influence of occupant walking on particle aerosolization is simulated by a system in which complex floor disturbances are deconvoluted into aerodynamic and mechanical components, and the results indicate aerodynamic disturbances relative to mechanical dominate the particle resuspension behavior.
