Popis: Window operation is among one of the most influential factors on indoor air quality (IAQ). In this paper, we focus on the modeling of the windows’ opening state in a real open-plan office with five windows. The IAQ of this open-plan office was monitored over a whole year along with the opening state of the windows. A k-Nearest Neighbor (k-NN) classification model was implemented, based on a long time series of both indoor and outdoor monitored environmental factors such as temperature and relative humidity, and CO2 indoor concentration. In addition, the month, the day of the week and the time of the day were included. The obtained model for the window state prediction performs well with an accuracy of 92% for the training set and 86% for the testing set.
