Abstract
A network connected controllable device is automatically controlled. A plurality of inputs that indicate states of a network connected device environment associated with a property of the network connected controllable device to be automatically controlled is received. A plurality of output candidates is evaluated according to an optimization function. The optimization function depends on the plurality of inputs and one or more parameters and the output candidates are associated with candidate settings of the property of the network connected controllable device to be automatically controlled. An output that optimizes the optimization function is selected among the plurality of output candidates.
