summary This paper proposes an environment prototype learning from people's Electroencephalogram (EEG) feedback in real-time. Instead of the widely adopted supervised learning method, a recently published affordable reinforcement learning model (PPO) is adopted to avoid bias from designers and to base the interaction on the subject and intelligent agent rather than between the designer and subject. In this way, development of interaction method towards a specific target is substantially accelerated. The target of this prototype is to keep the subject's alpha wave stable or decline, which indicated a more calming state, by intelligent decision of illumination state according to subject's EEG. The result is promising, a decent trained model could be gained within 500,000 steps facing this mid-complex environment. The target of keeping the alpha wave of subjects on a low or stable level purely by decision from computer agents is successfully reached.

title Optimization Design Study of Lightweight Temporary Building Integrated with PCMS Through CFD Simulation
doi https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2018.2.155

summary In fact, the phase change materials (PCMs) integrated in the building envelope structure can decrease the buildings' energy consumption by enhancing thermal energy storage capacity, which has been acknowledged and appreciated by many engineers and architects. To achieve a better practical application effect under the minimum cost principle and provide a different design method based on indoor thermal discomfort evaluation results for stakeholders, this paper numerically test the application effect of composite envelope under Tianjin climate through commercial computational fluid dynamic soft (Fluent). Further, parameter sensitivity to thermal performance of the composite envelope and indoor thermal discomfort are investigated in this paper, and two different evaluation indicators are introduced and used here. The numerical results obtained in this paper support the high potential of using PCM in lightweight temporary buildings and highlight the further optimization design work.
