Query: Generalized Online Transfer Learning for Climate Control in Residential
  Buildings   This paper presents an online transfer learning framework for improving
temperature predictions in residential buildings. In transfer learning,
prediction models trained under a set of available data from a target domain
(e.g., house with limited data) can be improved through the use of data
generated from similar source domains (e.g., houses with rich data). Given also
the need for prediction models that can be trained online (e.g., as part of a
model-predictive-control implementation), this paper introduces the generalized
online transfer learning algorithm (GOTL). It employs a weighted combination of
the available predictors (i.e., the target and source predictors) and
guarantees convergence to the best weighted predictor. Furthermore, the use of
Transfer Component Analysis (TCA) allows for using more than a single source
domains, since it may facilitate the fit of a single model on more than one
source domains (houses). This allows GOTL to transfer knowledge from more than
one source domains. We further validate our results through experiments in
climate control for residential buildings and show that GOTL may lead to
non-negligible energy savings for given comfort levels.
