Abstract

A building control device for estimating temperature of a space incorporating environmental sensors, a memory, and a controller. The controller may receive detected environmental conditions, identify operational environmental states, obtain a probability distribution for each operational environmental state, determine temperature estimates and a probability estimate for each temperature estimate, identify an operational environmental state at which the set of environmental sensors are likely operating, select a temperature estimate for the operational environmental state at which the set environmental sensors are likely operating, and generate the selected temperature estimate.
