1. 1. On the Feasibility of Reinforcement Learning in Single- and Multi-Agent Systems : The Cases of Indoor Climate and Prosumer Electricity Trading Communities

   Författare :Ross May; Kenneth Carling; Mengjie Han; Xingxing Zhang; Zoltán Nagy; Högskolan Dalarna; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Reinforcement Learning; Multi-Agent Reinforcement Learning; Buildings; Indoor Climate; Occupant Comfort; Positive Energy Districts; Peer-to-Peer Markets; Complex Adaptive Systems;

   Sammanfattning : Over half of the world’s population live in urban areas, a trend which is expected to only grow as we move further into the future. With this increasing trend in urbanisation, challenges are presented in the form of the management of urban infrastructure systems. LÄS MER

3. 2. Together We Learn More : Algorithms and Applications for User-Centric Anomaly Detection

   Författare :Ece Calikus; Sławomir Nowaczyk; Onur Dikmen; Stefan Byttner; Evgeny Burnaev; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; data mining; machine learning; anomaly detection; Smart Cities and Communities; Smarta städer och samhällen;

   Sammanfattning : Anomaly detection is the problem of identifying data points or patterns that do not conform to normal behavior. Anomalies in data often correspond to important and actionable information such as frauds in financial applications, faults in production units, intrusions in computer systems, and serious diseases in patient records.

4. 3. Sustainable business model innovation in agri-firms

   Författare :Per-Ola Ulvenblad; Henrik Barth; Jonas Gabrielsson; Lena Andersson Ekelund; Högskolan i Halmstad; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; agri-entrepreneur; sustainable business model innovation; business model building block; value intention; stewardship; Smart Cities and Communities; Smarta städer och samhällen;

   Sammanfattning : Background The focus of the research in the thesis is the development of sustainable business model innovation in Swedish agri-firms. There are needs on global and national levels for sustainable business model innovation in the agri-sector. More food must be produced to feed the growing world population. LÄS MER

5. 4. Modelling District Heating Network Costs

   Författare :Luis Sánchez-García; Urban Persson; Helge Averfalk; Erik Möllerström; Marcus Thern; Magnus Åberg; Sweden Lund Lund University; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; District Heating; Pipe network; Cost analysis; Distribution Capital Cost; Effective Width; Plot Ratio; Heat Density; GIS; Smart Cities and Communities; Smarta städer och samhällen;

   Sammanfattning : The solution of the undergoing climate and energy crises requires a radical transformation of the energy system, in which sustainability, no carbon emissions and energy efficiency ought to play a paramount role. This revolution should extend to all areas of the energy system, including the space heating and cooling sector, which accounts for a third of the European final energy demand and, in the European continent, it is still mostly supplied by fossil fuels.

7. 5. Decentralization in the electricity system: At the household, community and city levels

   Författare :Verena Heinisch; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Smart city; Storage systems; Power-to-heat; Optimization; Energy system modeling; Photovoltaic; Decentralization; Community energy; Prosumers;

   Sammanfattning : Recent years have seen a rise in the number of implementations of small-scale generation and storage technologies for electricity and heat at different levels in the energy system. This trend towards decentralization of the system is driven by rapid decrease in technology costs, as well as the intentions expressed by various stakeholders to contribute to a carbon-neutral energy system.
