Modeling
\label{modeling}
Based on the features initially selected, the linear and nonlinear
models were built to predict weather normalized EUI for multifamily and
office buildings for 4 years using the same features. The model for
office buildings in year 2015 is presented below as an example of these
results.
Linear Model
\label{linear-model}
After the linear model is applied, the in-sample r-squared for office
buildings in 2015 is 0.275, with an out- of- sample r-squared of 0.213
with 33% data as test data. This model includes 11 features which can
be seen in Table 8.
