  • Patent number: 11836644
    Abstract: A method, a device and a computer program product for abnormal air pollution emission prediction are proposed. In the method, a first set of features characterizing air condition in a zone is obtained. Whether the zone is subject to abnormal air pollution emission in a future first time period is determined based on the first set of features and using a first prediction classifier. In response to determining that the zone is subject to abnormal air pollution emission in the first time period, a second set of features characterizing air condition in the zone is obtained. A future second time period in which the zone is subject to abnormal air pollution emission is determined based on the second set of features and using a second prediction classifier. The second time period is included in the first time period. In this way, the abnormal air pollution emission in the zone can be accurately and efficiently predicted.

  • Patent number: 11307187
    Abstract: An abnormal area is detected using an initial spatial weights matrix between pairs of air quality sensors in a plurality of air quality sensors distributed across a geographical area and air quality data for each air quality sensor. The spatial weights matrix utilizes a distance between pairs of air quality sensors and wind direction through the geographical area. The initial spatial weights matrix and air quality data are used to calculate a plurality of local moran's indexes, one for each air quality sensor. The plurality of local moran's indexes are used to divide the plurality of air quality sensors into four groups. The groups are classified as proper or improper, and the proper groups are identified as abnormal areas.
