International audienceNowadays the decrease of energy consumption is a world target and it is no longer feasible to design a system without concerning to the energy optimization. An important energy consumer is associated with building heating systems. The main objective of this paper is to make a comparative study between two neural network architectures; the first is not recurrent, Radial Basis Function (RBF) and the second recurrent, Recurrent Memory Neural Networks (RMNN) for the adaptive control strategy to control the heating system from one room in order to minimize energy without reducing the comfort of occupants. The method was applied to an electric heating system, and the validity and performance of the proposed control system have been shown by various simulations, using the SIMBAD toolbox
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
