The main goal is to define a strategy to identify a malfunctioning sensor and to establish the correct measurement value in those cases. As study case, we use the data collected from a geothermal heat exchanger installed as part of the heat pump installation in a bioclimatic house. The sensor behaviour is modeled by using six different machine learning techniques: Random decision forests, gradient boosting, extremely randomized trees, adaptive boosting, k-nearest neighbors, and shallow neural networks. The achieved results suggest that this methodology is a very satisfactory solution for this kind of systems.engAtribución 3.0 EspañaCreative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/es/Fault detectionGeothermal heat exchangerRandom decision forestsGradient boostingExtremely randomized treesAdaptive boostingK-nearest neighborsShallow neural networksDetección de fallosIntercambiador de calor geotérmicoBosque de decisión aleatoriaPotenciación del gradienteÁrboles extremadamente aleatoriosK vecinos más cercanosRedes neuronales poco profundasA fault detection system for a geothermal heat exchanger sensor based on intelligent techniquesjournal articleopen access
