  • 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: 10648805
    Abstract: A method for tracking and identifying a polluted air mass's transmission trajectory in real 3-D space. In one aspect, a polluted air mass's transmission path identification is based on a monitoring of PM2.5 concentration in cubic volumes of an air mass. The method computes a transmission path of polluted air that considers wind-pressure conversion, the displacement estimation with mass concentration, and planetary boundary layer (PBLP height constraint) for 3-D cubic grids. The resultant determination of a polluted air mass's transmission trajectory in real 3-D space generates more practical and reliable results for intensive knowledge of the transport pathways and potential pollution sources in real 3-D space.
