Abstract
Analyzing thermostat data together with outdoor weather to predict indoor temperature can help smart thermostats optimize the operation of a residential building's HVAC system and make buildings more comfortable. Using weather forecasts, these smart thermostats can become proactive in responding to actual and future outdoor conditions. Using the ecobee thermostat data from sixteen Canadian and US houses, the prediction accuracy of the generalized regression neural network (GRNN) algorithm and the resilient back propagation neural network (ANN) algorithm were evaluated. Solar radiation was added to the data available from the smart thermostat to account for the effect of passive heating. GRNN proved to be a better predictor with a lower MSE and a maximum of 7.5°C deviation from actual measurements.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
