Accurate prediction of the energy consumption of government-owned buildings in the design phase is vital for government agencies, as it enables formulation of the early phases of development of such buildings with a view to reducing their environmental impact. The aim of this study was to identify the variables that are associated with energy consumption in government-owned buildings and to propose a predictive model based on those variables. The proposed approach selects relevant variables using the RReliefF variable selection algorithm. The support vector machine (SVM) method is used to develop a model of energy consumption based on the identified variables. The proposed approach was analyzed and validated on data for 175 government-owned buildings derived from the 2003 Commercial Building Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) database. The experimental results revealed that the proposed model is able to predict the energy consumption of government-owned buildings in the design phase with a reasonable level of accuracy. The proposed model could be beneficial in guiding government agencies in developing early strategies and proactively reducing the environmental impact of a building, thereby achieving a high degree of sustainability of buildings constructed for government agencies.

Diffusion coefficient of carbon dioxide (CO2), a significant parameter describing the mass transfer process, exerts a profound influence on the safety of CO2 storage in depleted reservoirs, saline aquifers, and marine ecosystems. However, experimental determination of diffusion coefficient in CO2-brine system is time-consuming and complex because the procedure requires sophisticated laboratory equipment and reasonable interpretation methods. To facilitate the acquisition of more accurate values, an intelligent model, termed MKSVM-GA, is developed using a hybrid technique of support vector machine (SVM), mixed kernels (MK), and genetic algorithm (GA). Confirmed by the statistical evaluation indicators, our proposed model exhibits excellent performance with high accuracy and strong robustness in a wide range of temperatures (273–473.15 K), pressures (0.1–49.3 MPa), and viscosities (0.139–1.950 mPa·s). Our results show that the proposed model is more applicable than the artificial neural network (ANN) model at this sample size, which is superior to four commonly used traditional empirical correlations. The technique presented in this study can provide a fast and precise prediction of CO2 diffusivity in brine at reservoir conditions for the engineering design and the technical risk assessment during the process of CO2 injection.

Energy consumption is a demand for the amount of energy that must supply the building at any given time. Building energy consumption has continued increased over the last few decades all over the world, and Heating, Ventilating, and Air-Conditioning (HVAC), which has a catalytic role in regulating the temperature in the room, mostly accounted for of building energy use. Models created for in this study support vector machine and support vector machine-based models of genetic algorithm to obtain the value of accuracy or error rate or the smallest error value Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) in predicting energy consumption in buildings is more accurate. After testing the two models of support vector machines and support vector machines based on the genetic algorithm is the testing results obtained by using support vector machines where RMSE value obtained was 2,613. Next was the application of genetic algorithms to the optimization parameters C and γ values obtained RMSE error of 1.825 and a genetic algorithm for feature selection error RMSE values obtained for 1,767 of the 7 predictor variables and the selection attribute or feature resulting in the election of three attributes used. After that is done the optimization parameters and the importance of the value of feature selection mistake or error of the smallest RMSE of 1.537. Thus the support vector machine algorithm based on genetic algorithm can give a solution to the problems in the prediction of energy consumption rated the smallest mistake or error.

Proposed Model

Water quality analysis is a crucial step in water resources management and needs to be addressed urgently to control any pollution that may adversely affect the ecosystem and to ensure the environmental standards are being met. Thus, this work is an attempt to develop an efficient model using support vector machine (SVM) to predict the water quality of Langat River Basin through the analysis of the data of six parameters of dual reservoirs that are located in the catchment. The proposed model could be considered as an effective tool for identifying the water quality status for the river catchment area. In addition, the major advantage of the proposed model is that it could be useful for ungauged catchments or those lacking enough numbers of monitoring stations for water quality parameters. These parameters, namely pH, Suspended Solids (SS), Dissolved Oxygen (DO), Ammonia Nitrogen (AN), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), and Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD) were provided by the Malaysian Department of Environment (DOE). The differences between dual scenarios 1 and 2 depend on the information from prior stations to forecast DO levels for succeeding sites (Scenario 2). This scheme has the capacity to simulate water-quality accurately, with small prediction errors. The resulting correlation coefficient has maximum values of 0.998 and 0.979 after the application of Scenario 1. The approach with Type 1 SVM regression along with 10-fold cross-validation methods worked to generate precise results. The MSE value was found to be between 0.004 and 0.681, with Scenario 1 showing a better outcome.

Building energy consumption is a vital part of the total energy consumption in China, it is meaningful to predict the building energy consumption exactly as it is useful in the effective implementation of energy policies and is propitious for further expansion of the housing industry. In this paper, based on the factor analysis theory to reduce the dimension of the building energy consumption index, hybrid models of BP neural network and Least Squares Support Vector Machines are constructed respectively to predict the building energy consumption. Relevant data is collected from National Bureau of Statistics of China (1981~2009). Data analysis shows the proposed models, especially based on LS-SVMs, have more steady performance and higher accuracy.

Prediction of a building energy use for heating is very important for adequate energy planning. In this paper the daily district heating use of one university campus was predicted using the support vector machine model. Support vector machine is the artificial intelligence method that has recently proved that it can achieve comparable, or even better prediction results than the much more used artificial neural networks. The proposed model was trained and tested on the real, measured data. The model accuracy was compared with the results of the previously published models (various neural networks and their ensembles) on the same database. The results showed that the support vector machine model can achieve better results than the individual neural networks, but also better than the conventional and multistage ensembles. It is expected that this theoretically well-known methodology finds wider application, especially in prediction tasks.
