DISCRIMINATION OF IN-ORDINAL STATE IN ROOM TEMPERATURE BASED ON STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

DISCRIMINATION OF IN-ORDINAL STATE IN ROOM TEMPERATURE BASED ON STATISTICAL ANALYSIS

In this paper, an approach to determine the in-ordinal condition of a room, which is based on multi variable analysis, is proposed. According to this approach, the distance of a state from the ordinal condition is thought to be evaluated by the Mahalanobis' distance. The temperature changes of a room were measured and their statistical characteristics such as distribution type, the mean value and the standard deviation are studied. The applicability of the method for the fire detection is also investigated.
