Residuals and Least-Squares Property
If the observed data point lies above the line, the residual is positive, and the line underestimates the actual data value for y. If the observed data point lies below the line, the residual is negative, and the line overestimates the actual data value for y.

Prediction Intervals
However, the point estimate is most likely not the exact value of the population parameter, but close to it. After calculating point estimates, we construct interval estimates, called confidence intervals or prediction intervals. This prediction interval comprises a range of values unlike the point estimate and is a better predictor of the observed sample value, y.

This study introduces a machine learning framework for predictive maintenance in buildings, aiming to reduce energy waste. The framework successfully predicted failures in a sports facility
Area of Science:
- Building Operations & Maintenance
- Artificial Intelligence in Engineering
- Sustainable Building Management
Background:
- Building maintenance is often inefficient, leading to significant energy waste.
- Information and Communication Technology (ICT) solutions have improved management but not efficiency.
- Current practices lack proactive strategies for preventing equipment failures.
Purpose of the Study:
- To propose a predictive maintenance framework for building installations.
- To provide guidelines for implementing machine learning-based predictive maintenance.
- To demonstrate the framework's efficacy in a real-world building setting.
Main Methods:
- Developed a five-step framework: data collection, processing, model development, fault notification, and model improvement.
- Utilized Internet of Things (IoT) devices and Building Automation Systems (BAS) for data collection.
- Employed a deep learning model for failure prediction in Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning (HVAC) systems.
Main Results:
- The case study demonstrated the framework's potential for accurate failure prediction.
- Identified obstacles including data availability and feedback collection challenges.
- Validated the predictive capabilities of the deep learning model for HVAC installations.
Conclusions:
- The proposed framework offers a viable approach to implementing predictive maintenance in buildings.
- Guidelines are provided for scientists and practitioners to adopt these advanced maintenance strategies.
- Further work is needed to address data-related barriers for widespread implementation.
