Abstract:
Disclosed are a method of predicting a fine dust concentration and inferring a fine dust source by using local public data and a prediction and inference device. The method of predicting a fine dust concentration and inferring a fine dust source by using local public data includes generating time-series data related to fine dust by collecting public data in a specific region in a predetermined chronological order and determining whether fine dust is generated in the specific region by converting pieces of time-series data collected in consecutive times into an image dataset for training and by training the image dataset for training in a convolution neural network (CNN)-based image classification model.
