Greylag Goose Optimization for smart building efficiency: feature selection and hyperparameter tuning in occupancy and energy management
摘要
The increasing need for sustainable and energy-efficient smart buildings has prompted the development of advanced strategies for optimizing real-time occupancy and energy management systems. This study presents an innovative approach that harnesses the power of the Greylag Goose Optimization (GGO) algorithm to enhance deep learning models through effective feature selection and hyperparameter tuning. To address challenges in managing energy consumption while ensuring occupant comfort, we introduce a methodology that combines binary GGO (bGGO) for feature selection with standard GGO for fine-tuning hyperparameters. The proposed method significantly improves the predictive accuracy of occupancy and energy models. Initial results using the baseline Error-Trend-Seasonal (ETS) model yielded a mean squared error (MSE) of 0.00852. After applying bGGO, performance improved markedly, achieving an MSE of 0.000477. Further optimization through GGO hyperparameter tuning reduced the MSE to an exceptional
