From the background information supplied by the inventors, news correspondents obtained the following quote: “Many industrial activities produce pollution of one or more types. Examples of the pollution include carbon dioxide emissions, greenhouse gases, noise pollution, light pollution, consumer waste pollution, and any combinations thereof. Several organizations collect pollutant data in various cities around the world in order to quantify and analyze the pollutant data, which result from human and industrial activity, due to the increasing concern of the negative impact of the pollution on the human health and environment.
“In China, several organizations have collected pollutant data for approximately last 40 years. The organizations made use of approximately 42,000 pollutant data collectors all across
“Various problems occur in connection with management and processing of the big pollutant datasets, using conventional technologies, since the pollutant datasets are so large and complex that the pollutant datasets become difficult to work with using on-hand management and analytical tools. In particular, the processing of the larger pollutant datasets for any management application may cause problems involving access times, processing costs, and load balancing requirements among multiple pollutant data collector centers that are geographically dispersed, and subject to varying levels of access demands depending on particular locations and/or particular times.”
Supplementing the background information on this patent, NewsRx reporters also obtained the inventors’ summary information for this patent: “What is therefore needed is a method and a system that efficiently and effectively manages and processes distributed big pollutant datasets generated across multiple sites at real-time for an application. The processed big pollutant datasets may be used as an input to generate an artificial intelligence model, such as a mortality model, which may be executed to determine eligibility of a user to avail a health-related service. When facing a high number of big pollutant datasets from multiple sites, a computer-specific set of rules may also be applied to the mortality model to produce efficient and accurate results for each user.
“In one embodiment, a server-implemented method may include receiving, by a server programmed according to an event-driven asynchronous architecture, from a client computing device operated by a user, a request from an input field of a network page served to the client computing device, the request comprising one or more attributes of the user, a list of locations, and a time period during which the user has been associated with each location; in response to receiving the request, querying, by the server, an application server to receive a set of air particulate datasets corresponding to the user, wherein each set of air particulate datasets comprises air particulate data associated with at least one location within the list of locations and a corresponding time period; generating, by the server, a multi-dimensional feature vector where each dimension corresponds to a location from the list of locations and the corresponding time period at which the user is associated with the location; retrieving, by the server, one or more artificial intelligence models in accordance with the multi-dimensional feature vector, each artificial intelligence model having a neural network that incorporates air particulate data; executing, by the server, the one or more artificial intelligence models based on the multi-dimensional feature vector and the set of air particulate datasets; generating, by the server executing the one or more artificial intelligence models, an indicator corresponding to an output of the one or more artificial intelligence models; and upon the indicator satisfying a threshold, executing, by the server, a pricing model module.
“In another embodiment, a system may include a network, a client computing device operated by a client, and a server programmed according to an event-driven asynchronous architecture. The server is configured to receive from the client computing device a request from an input field of a network page served to the client computing device, the request comprising one or more attributes of the user, a list of locations, and a time period during which the user has been associated with each location; query an application server to receive a set of air particulate datasets corresponding to the user, wherein each set of air particulate datasets comprises air particulate data associated with at least one location within the list of locations and a corresponding time period; generate a multi-dimensional feature vector where each dimension corresponds to a location from the list of locations and the corresponding time period at which the user is associated with the location; retrieve one or more artificial intelligence models in accordance with the multi-dimensional feature vector, each artificial intelligence model having a neural network that incorporates air particulate data; execute the one or more artificial intelligence models based on the multi-dimensional feature vector and the set of air particulate datasets; generate an indicator corresponding to an output of the one or more artificial intelligence models; and upon the indicator satisfying a threshold, execute a pricing model module.
