Abstract: A whole building air quality control system includes an indoor air quality (IAQ) component having at least one control state, a plurality of sensors configured to measure a plurality of building conditions of a building space, and a controller communicably coupled to the IAQ component and the plurality of sensors. The controller includes memory storing a desired air quality index (AQI). The AQI includes a categorical variable. The controller is configured to iteratively modify a control state of the IAQ component using a machine learning algorithm until the plurality of building conditions of the building space satisfy the desired AQI.

Abstract: A cooking insert for use with a cooking device may include a lower cooking plate and an upper cooking plate connected to the lower plate with a floating hinge, with the lower plate having a plurality of ribs formed on an upper surface thereof. The insert may include a base member having a first portion and a second portion, with the first portion defining a cooking surface. A cavity formed in an upper surface of the second portion is suitable for cooking a liquid egg therein.

Abstract: An egg cooking insert can be used with a cooking device having a lower cooking plate and an upper cooking plate connected to the lower plate with a floating hinge, with the egg cooking insert including a base portion having an upper surface defining a cooking surface. A wall extends upwardly about a periphery of the upper surface to define a cavity above the cooking surface. The base portion may have a thickness greater than a thickness of the wall. A bottom surface of the base portion may be angled with respect to the cooking surface. A plurality of grooves may be formed in the bottom surface of the base portion.
