• Field investigations in a cold plateau region provided a realistic basis for developing an indoor thermal comfort prediction and optimization framework. • The proposed S-MLGA framework identified an optimal design solution, with only a 0.1% deviation in the thermal comfort time ratio compared with CFD results. • SHAP analysis provided design oriented insights by identifying the dominant passive parameters influencing thermal comfort outcomes.
