报告摘要：

In contemporary society, individuals are expected to spend a substantial portion of their time indoors. Maintaining comfortable and healthy indoor environments is crucial for human comfort, productivity, and health. Despite extensive research, less than half of occupants are satisfied with public indoor environments. This dissatisfaction largely stems from conventional indoor environmental control methods, which rely on one-size-fits-all approaches and fail to account for individual environmental preferences. My research aims to address this issue. In this talk, I will introduce the innovative concept of the human Digital ID (DID). I will begin by defining DID and demonstrating its integration into building systems. Subsequently, I will discuss two research themes from my studies that utilize DID. The first research theme focuses on enhancing human comfort. I will present a DID-based framework designed for the joint optimization of occupants' thermal comfort and building energy consumption using flexible workplaces. This framework is built upon personal thermal comfort models and the Large Neighborhood Search (LNS) algorithm. In the second research theme, I will explore how DID can enhance occupant productivity through physiological sensing technologies. I will introduce methods for measuring and predicting work engagement. I will conclude with remarks on future research directions aimed at promoting personal well-being and building sustainability.

在当代社会中，个人被期望花费大量时间在室内。保持舒适和健康的室内环境对人类的舒适度、生产力和健康至关重要。尽管学术领域进行了广泛的研究，然而不到一半的公众对公共室内环境感到满意。这种不满主要源于传统的室内环境控制方法，它们依赖于一种通用的方式，未能考虑个体的环境偏好。本研究旨在解决这一问题。在这次演讲中，将介绍人类数字身份（DID）的创新概念。报告将首先定义DID并展示其在建筑系统中的整合。随后，将讨论我研究中的两个主题，这些主题都利用了DID。第一个研究主题聚焦于提升人类舒适度。我将展示一个基于DID的框架，旨在通过灵活的工作场所联合优化居住者的热舒适度和建筑能耗。该框架基于个人热舒适模型和大邻域搜索（LNS）算法。在第二个研究主题中，将探讨DID如何通过生理感应技术提高居住者的生产力，介绍测量和预测工作投入的方法。
