Abstract

University College London (UCL) has more than 51,000 students along with a challenge to find available study space. UCL has improved its Internet of Things (IoT) infrastructure to better analyze space occupancy in order to solve this. Current systems offer real-time information, but they are only available in crowded places. Therefore, this study presents a data analysis system that recommends the best study areas by using Machine Learning (ML) and historical data. The main library, student center, and science library at UCL are the top three study places. The goal of this study is to transform raw occupancy data from these venues into useful insights. The development of an independent system written in Python was facilitated by research into dataset optimization, ML regressions, popularity patterns, and feature analysis. This technique uses historical trends to forecast occupancy rates for the future.
