#50 Development of Artificial Neural Network and Automated Life Cycle Assessments for Cloud Based Residential Energy Estimations
This project will see the development of a next generation cloud based artificial neural network for new home operational energy efficiency and embodied carbon. It is intended that designers, builders and clients in both Australia and New Zealand will be able to utilise this engine to gain near real time feedback on the estimated energy performance and embodied carbon of a new home empowering those in the industry to make better informed decisions when it comes to sustainability, cost and performance.
Researchers on this project include: Dr Phil Christopher (Project Lead), Dr Khuong Bui, Dr Victor Bunster, Prof Tuan Ngo and Dr Lu Aye, Gavin Tonnet, Brett Donovan & Edward Massey
