Abstract:
A pollution estimation system (100) for estimating pollution level caused by exhaust gas of motor vehicles is provided. The system comprises an acoustic sensor interface (110) arranged to obtain use-data from an acoustic sensor comprising an audio sample of a motor vehicle sound and a trained exhaust gas model unit (120) arranged to receive as input the audio sample of the use-data and to apply a trained exhaust gas model to the received audio sample to produce an estimated pollution level associated with the received audio sample. The trained exhaust gas model has been obtained by training an exhaust gas model on multiple training items using a machine learning algorithm, the multiple training items comprising multiple audio samples of motor vehicle sounds obtained from one or more acoustic sensors and associated pollution levels.

Abstract:
An induction cleaning analyzing system includes a pressure sensor, an ignition event detector, and a control module. The pressure sensor measures airflow pressures of intake air and/or exhaust from cylinders in a common airflow pathway of a vehicle. The ignition event detector determines ignition events of the cylinders. The control module obtains pressure waveforms representative of the airflow pressures and divides the pressure waveforms into waveform segments. The control module associates different subsets of the waveform segments with different ones of the cylinders using the ignition events. The control module also identifies cyclic variations in the airflow pressures flowing in the common airflow pathway and caused by at least one of the cylinders by examining the waveform segments associated with the at least one of the cylinders.
Abstract:
A system and method is provided for synchronizing a first and second signal of an exhaust sampling system. The first signal is generated by a first instrument and includes an exhaust flow rate component and a first instrument time stamp component. The second signal is generated by a second instrument and includes a pollutant concentration component and a second instrument time stamp component. The second instrument also generates a tertiary signal that has been influenced by the first signal and includes a second instrument time stamp component. A synchronization module determines a time relationship for synchronizing the first signal and the second signal by comparing the first flow rate component and the first instrument time stamp component of the first signal to the tertiary signal and the second instrument time stamp component of the tertiary signal. The synchronization provides accurate calculation of a pollutant mass flow rate.
