Model-Free Control of Thermostatically Controlled Loads Connected to a District Heating Network

no code implementations27 Jan 2017 Bert J. Claessens, Dirk Vanhoudt, Johan Desmedt, Frederik Ruelens

Optimal control of thermostatically controlled loads connected to a district heating network is considered a sequential decision- making problem under uncertainty.

Convolutional Neural Networks For Automatic State-Time Feature Extraction in Reinforcement Learning Applied to Residential Load Control

1 code implementation28 Apr 2016 Bert J. Claessens, Peter Vrancx, Frederik Ruelens

Direct load control of a heterogeneous cluster of residential demand flexibility sources is a high-dimensional control problem with partial observability.

Reinforcement Learning Applied to an Electric Water Heater: From Theory to Practice

no code implementations29 Nov 2015 Frederik Ruelens, Bert Claessens, Salman Quaiyum, Bart De Schutter, Robert Babuska, Ronnie Belmans

A wellknown batch reinforcement learning technique, fitted Q-iteration, is used to find a control policy, given this feature representation.

Experimental analysis of data-driven control for a building heating system

no code implementations13 Jul 2015 Giuseppe Tommaso Costanzo, Sandro Iacovella, Frederik Ruelens, T. Leurs, Bert Claessens

From the quantitative analysis it has been found that the control approach converges in approximately 20 days to obtain a control policy with a performance within 90% of the mathematical optimum.

Residential Demand Response Applications Using Batch Reinforcement Learning

no code implementations8 Apr 2015 Frederik Ruelens, Bert Claessens, Stijn Vandael, Bart De Schutter, Robert Babuska, Ronnie Belmans

We propose a model-free Monte-Carlo estimator method that uses a metric to construct artificial trajectories and we illustrate this method by finding the day-ahead schedule of a heat-pump thermostat.
