The goal is to develop the design methodology that results in statistical models where the disclosure of private information is controlled with analytical guarantees and the model is representative for the application in smart buildings such as HVAC monitoring or advanced energy management. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Digital twins and GDPR<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We will also explore how to design digital twins that are compliant with GDPRs data minimization principle. The research will build on previous research on privacy-preserving energy management design (see figures below, data collected in KTH Live-in Lab, [ACCESS, TIFS]), digital twins for HVAC systems, cross-disciplinary research on law and technology [FIU], and our recently proposed privacy measure called pointwise maximal leakage [PML].&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Publications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">[ACCESS]&nbsp;R.
