Roof models with low heat loss and low heating costs for buildings are crucial for reducing energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions in cold regions. This study aimed to calculate the heat loss for various roof models with low heat loss, which are widely used in houses in Europe and other cold regions. We created 324 models for three types of roofs (light, medium, and heavy) with different materials and thicknesses using the HAP program. We then trained a neural network (ANN) to generate a mathematical function that can be used to calculate the optimal surface using a multi-objective genetic algorithm method. The resulting optimal roof design was simulated using the Ansys program on a January day. We compared the heat loss results for the optimal roof  for HAP, ANN, and transient thermal analysis by Ansys, respectively, showing a close agreement among the methods.
