Inter-seasonal GP MPC control for buildings

Report and Presentation slides

This repository contains the code for the report and presentation slides for my Master Project

Inter-seasonal Performance of Gaussian Process-based Model Predictive Control of Buildings

which was done under the supervision of Prof. Colin Jones at the EPFL's Automatic Control Laboratory

The main folder structure is as follows:

└── Thesis
    ├── Images
    ├── Plots
    └── Sections

The Images and Plots folders contain the figures used in the thesis and are shared between the report and the presentation. The Sections folder contains the content of documents.

In order to compile the documents, the appropriate main file has to be chosen:

  • thesis.tex compiles the project report
  • slides_clean.tex compiles the presentation slides, not including the notes
  • slides_notes.tex compiles the presentation slides, including the notes on the right side of the screen.

The resulting presentation pdf contains an embedded video file. It can be played back using a compatible pdf reader, such as okular or pympress.


The presentation is based on the beamer template by Mahmoud Shaqfa.
