    Python programming

    6. Pre-requisites
    Ajánlott:
    Programming (BMEVIHIA061 or BMEEODH001)
    7. Objectives, learning outcomes and obtained knowledge
    The aim of the course for students is to apply and deepen previously got programming knowledge (object-oriented Python programming) in Building Management Systems field. Students get familiar in application of IT methods in BMS field based on simplified models of widely used solutions, services of buildings. Resource-effective and secure applications are implemented while perfection is got in terminology, typical and specific tasks, standards of BMS.

    Potential projects:
    1. Geoinformatics, Image Processing: the base is a spatial point cloud of a building (or building part), students need to use programming tools to clean the point cloud, identify simple, typical building objects, derive dimensions.
    2. Energetics: based on a software of hardware (IoT) environment of a building, students create energy management system. The goal is a building model consist of scalable environmental impacts (temperature, illumination), energy loss of the building/walls, and the heating system (traditional combined with the one using renewable energy). Students need to harmonize these systems, create appropriate control management, and prove its working by reports/queries.
    3. Intelligent building: the model described above is to be extended by the elements of an intelligent house, i.e., sensors, safety, and comfort services (e.g., wind sensor, actuators for shading screens, cameras and window/door sensors and actuators, controlling lighting and entertainment systems. Student will obtain creative services in this context/environment.
    4. Building safety/security: Security and safety solutions (security sensors, fire detectors to minimize damage and improve safety level).
    5. Facility management: students are modelling the aging of the building, the deterministic and stochastic events, are estimating operating costs, scheduling maintenance actions (considering Industry 4.0 concepts).
    6. IoT-based Building Management: IoT tools monitoring the building and its environment are to be used for the above-mentioned tasks, solutions. From the acquired data the accuracy level of estimates can be improved to save the quality of the building, its safety level, considering comfort and effective operation. Students learn the basics and strengths of Big Data analysis and Deep Learning.

    Projects are supported by hardware and software modelling elements, practically a building simulation environment is prepared. Students must create software solutions in above fields using sensors and activators of the model building starting from prepared application structures.

    1.

    Begin by revisiting Numpy's pivotal role in numerical operations, then swiftly transition into an overview of Pandas for adept data manipulation and Matplotlib for creating insightful visualizations, ensuring a solid foundation in Python-based data handling and visualization tools.

    2.

    Delve into fundamental data visualization techniques with Matplotlib, exploring various chart types, and proceed to harness both Numpy and Pandas in executing elementary data analysis, exploring basic statistical and visual methods to extract preliminary insights from datasets.

    3.

    Navigate through K-means clustering, starting with a practical exploration of its implementation in 1D data, advancing to a more complex application in 2D, and finally transitioning to linear regression, unraveling its predictive capabilities and exploring its usage in predicting outcomes based on varying input variables.

    4.

    Dive into bridge vibration data using Pandas for data handling and Matplotlib for visualization. Employ Fourier analysis to detect dominant vibration frequencies.

    5.

    Delve into Hungarian government housing expenditure data manipulation and analysis with Python, utilizing Pandas for data handling and Matplotlib for visualization. Navigate through data extraction from ZIP files and resolve CSV parsing errors, while ensuring data consistency and alignment. Apply data cleaning techniques to manage non-numeric and misaligned entries, ensuring accurate analysis. Leverage data visualization to explore financial trends, examine class imbalances, and derive insights. Engage with exercises and visualization tasks to gain practical knowledge and insights into data preparation and exploration for real-world applications.
