N2 - Recent studies on thermal comfort often require feedback from occupants or additional devices installed. This often limits the scalability of these approaches. In this paper, we for the first time study thermal comfort prediction of an occupant by training a model from the data of not only the targeted occupant but also others, guided by domain knowledge. We demonstrate, using ASHRAE data, that this approach has potential, and is worth exploring.
