Abstract
This research examined how to estimate a room's occupancy utilizing datasets using data collected from various sensors with boosting methods. Different sensors were used to extract features that indicate the occupancy level and the relative changes (PIR motion detectors, CO2 sensors, plug loads, lighting loads, electricity use and Wi-Fi access points). The proposed two-layer method increases the reliability and accuracy of occupancy detection. Five machine learning models were trained and tested using data on occupancy (Logistic Regression, Multi-Layer Perceptron Classifier, Support Vector Machine, Light Gradient Boosting Machine and Gradient Boosting). Accuracy, Precision, F1-score, Recall and ROC were the performance parameters used. Thus, using the Python tool, the proposed optimized model gives better detection and estimated accuracy of occupancy in the indoor environment. As a result, data fusion in conjunction with the Light GBM algorithm's gradient boosting-based categorical features and PSO optimization techniques may be used to predict occupancy data with high accuracy and F1-score (both 99%).

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
