Context-Aware Resource Management in Multi-Inhabitant Smart Homes: A Nash H-Learning Based Approach

Overview A smart home aims at building intelligence automation with a goal to provide its inhabitants with maximum possible comfort, minimize the resource consumption and thus overall cost of maintaining the home.
