SentinelHive is a research laboratory at the University of Texas at San Antonio committed to enhancing building performance through trustworthy technologies. It enables developers, manufacturers, and service providers –as trustees– to safeguard the interests of building occupants –as trustors– while delivering improved comfort and energy efficiency. Our research focuses on the four characteristics of trustworthy systems: benevolence, reliability, interpretability, and security. Specifically, the lab investigates sources of bias in training data-driven models, evaluates model performance amid unseen events, explores causal modeling for better explainability, and examines adversarial uses of building performance data and models.
