abstract = {Building control architectures are strongly limited by the
systematic lack of measurements at user-relevant locations.
This paper proposes a digital twin architecture grounded in
Correlated Gaussian Processes (Corr-GP) that provide
information in the form of pseudo-measurements. Tested with
thermal and CO2 measurements collected from the field,
close-to-person pseudo-measurements are provided based on
the continuous input of remotely located measurement
signals. In particular, detailed short-term as well as
long-term results are provided for both temperature and CO2
digital twins. We show that the proposed approach is
trainable on only a few days of measurements. This property
makes the proposed approach especially useful in field
applications, where alternative algorithms, such as, for
example, neural network architectures, are not capable of
dealing with small amounts of data. We demonstrate how to
adjust the proposed approach to provide temperature and CO2
digital twins for the generation of pseudo-measurements.
Within the given framework, we show how to utilize the
proposed digital twin to couple multiple reference sensors
to provide close-to-person pseudo-measurements. By extending
the Corr-GP approach to a non-zero prior mean formulation,
we show how to reduce the included information by the
reference sensors. More precisely, the extended approach can
be defined as a digital twin with only a single reference
sensor. This enables a reliable long-term application by
avoiding the need for retraining caused by changing
seasonalities within the signal characteristics. That is, we
show that the digital twin trained in summer can be operated
in winter.},
