WINNER: Dr. Omid Ardakanian, Computing Science, University of Alberta
Initiative: Making Buildings Smart and Efficient using Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things
The operation of buildings accounts for more than 30% of the total energy consumption in North America. The team has developed machine learning algorithms for data-enabled optimization and control of buildings and energy systems – that reduce energy consumption and improve their indoor environmental quality (IEQ) performance.
