Abstract
Climate change increases the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events that can be a prominent cause of power outages in North America. These events may cause buildings to experience outages for hours to days, endangering occupant well-being. Although typical adaptive strategies can offer assistance, they often demand substantial initial investments. Thus, due to the need for low-cost solutions, this paper evaluates the efficacy of the proposed pre-heating/cooling algorithm using smart thermostats. The ongoing research employs automated energy modelling through Python scripting to streamline the energy model upgrade process and the EnergyPlus Energy Management System (EMS) algorithm to incorporate pre-conditioning features during grid outages. The results indicated an average 18% improvement in peak intensity and 9% in overall performance during extreme events. Also, it offers the potential for future studies to employ this methodology in assessing the effects of other low-cost strategies for adapting to grid disruptions.

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
