ResStock occupants' behaviour

Hi !

When I generate a model with "openstudio path/to/openstudio.exe /path/to/run_analysis.rb -y -u upgrade_name -m" (from the ResStock library) and then run energyplus simulation I got a surprising evolution of the parameter "Zone People Occupant Count" in the conditionned space (for 2 people). Here is the evolution for the first 16 timesteps (15min) :

[2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 2.0, 1.466, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.466, 0.0, 0.534]

I have some doubts on the in.schedules.csv file (generated with run_analysis.rb) because the first 16 timesteps (15min) :

[1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 0.733, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.5, 0.233, 0.0, 0.267]

Should I expect this result of in.schedules.csv ?

Thanks for your help !
