Locations of the elements in use features may represent cumulative service times and service intensities, etc., of different target gas meters. Values of the elements in the use feature 450 may be configured to represent a specific cumulative service time and an intensity, etc. of the target gas meter. For example, the use feature may be (3.1, 7, 1.5, 30, 1.2), which means that the cumulative service time of the target gas meter is 3.1 years, an average daily consumption in last 7 days is 1.5 cubic meters, and an average daily consumption in the 30 days is 1.2 cubic meters.
A maintenance feature may be a maintenance data feature vector representing the target gas meter. Locations of elements in maintenance features may indicate a count of maintenances, major/minor repair, and maintenance times of different target gas meters. Values of the elements in the maintenance data feature vector may represent a specific count of maintenances, major/minor repair, and maintenance time of the target gas meter. For example, the maintenance feature may be (3, 1, 2, 1, 0.8, 1.5, 2.5), which means that the target gas meter has been repaired three times, first and third maintenance results are 1, a second maintenance result is 2, and three maintenance times are 0.8, 1.5, and 2.5 years ago respectively. According to a preset correspondence table, the maintenance result of 1 may indicate the minor repair, and the maintenance result of 2 may indicate the major repair.

In step 710, for each of the one or more target reference gas meters, determining the reference target time of the target reference gas meter by processing the reference use data and the reference maintenance data corresponding to the target reference gas meter based on the replacement prediction model corresponding to the target reference gas meter.
The reference target time may refer to a time for replacement of the target reference gas meter. For more information on target time, see
In some embodiments, the sub platform of the management platform of the smart gas indoor device may process the reference use data and reference maintenance time corresponding to the target reference gas meter based on the replacement prediction model corresponding to the target reference gas meter, and determine the reference target time of the target reference gas meter. See
In step 650, determining the target time for replacing the target gas meter by analyzing the reference target time(s), the reference use data and the reference maintenance data of the one or more target reference gas meters as well as the use data and the maintenance data of the target gas meter based on the second preset algorithm.
The second preset algorithm may refer to an algorithm for determining the target time for replacing the target gas meter. For example, the second preset algorithm may include, but may be not limited to, a sum algorithm, an average algorithm, and the like.
In some embodiments, the second preset algorithm may include following operations.
The sub platform of the management platform of the smart gas indoor device may use following formulas (1) and (2) to calculate the target time for replacing the target gas meter.
P
i(i=1,2 . . . k)=Σ(Aj*Lj*e(r
P=average(Pi) (2)
For formula (1), where Lj represents the reference target times of target reference gas meters in different models. j represents the models of the target reference gas meters. For example, the target reference gas meters that use the same replacement prediction model according to the model data may be classified into one category. When j=1, it may represent model one of the target reference gas meters; When j=2, it may represent model two of the target reference gas meters. As another example, supposing there are three different types of target reference gas meters, j=1, 2, 3, L1=1.01 year, L2=1.03 years, L3=1.06 years, which means that the reference target time of target reference gas meter in model one may be 1.01 years, the reference target time of target reference gas meter in model two may be 1.03 years, and the reference target time of target reference gas meter in model three may be 1.06 years.
Aj may be a weight coefficient. In some embodiments, Aj may change according to Lj, the larger Lj, the smaller Aj; conversely, the smaller Lj, the larger Aj. For example, there may be target reference gas meters in three different models, if L1>L2>L3, then A1<A2<A3.
e represents irrational number.
rji represents a reference vector of the target reference gas meter. The reference vector may refer to a mean value of a vector corresponding to the reference use data and reference maintenance data of the target reference gas meter. i represents a count of elements in the reference vector. For example, when j=1, r=2, r12 represents two elements contained in the reference vector of the target reference gas meter of model one, the two elements may respectively represent a use age in the reference use data and a count of maintenances in the reference maintenance data of the target reference gas meter, and may also represent the reference use data and other data contained in the reference maintenance data of the target reference gas meter. For example, when j=2, r=1, r21 means that the reference vector of the target reference gas meter of model two only contains one element, the one element may represent the use age in the reference use data of the target reference gas meter, the count of maintenances in the reference maintenance data of the target reference gas meter, and other data contained in the reference use data and reference maintenance data of the target reference gas meter. In some embodiments, target reference gas meter in the same model may include at least one target reference gas meter. The target reference gas meter in the same model may be represented by a reference vector. In some embodiments, when the target reference gas meter in the same model includes a plurality of target reference gas meters, the reference use data and reference maintenance data of the plurality of target reference gas meters may be averaged to obtain the reference vector of the target reference gas meter in the model. For example, when there are target reference gas meters in three models, and the reference vector may contain two elements, as shown in Table 1:
Ri represents a representative vector of the target gas meter. The representative vector may refer to an average value of the vector corresponding to the use data and maintenance data of the target gas meter, and the elements of the representative vector may correspond to the elements of the reference vector. For example, if the reference vector contains the use age and the count of maintenances of the target reference gas meter, the representative vector may also contain the use age and the count of maintenances of the target gas meter. As another example, the representative vector may be (3.1, 3), which means that the use age of the target gas meter is 3.1 years and the count of the maintenances is 3.
Pi in formula (1) represents a target time component calculated by processing the reference target time, reference use data, reference maintenance data of target reference gas meters of different models and the use data and maintenance data of target gas meters of different models. P in formula (2) represents a target time for replacement of target gas meter which is finally determined by weighted summation of the target time component Pi. In some embodiments, the sub platform of the management platform of the smart gas indoor device may use formula (1) to calculate the target time component, and then bring the target time component into formula (2) to calculate the target time for replacing the target gas meter.
In some embodiments, when Ri=0 (i.e., the target gas meter is a brand-new gas meter), giving Pi a larger value (for example, the reasonable maximum use age M of the gas meter of the model). During the calculation using formula (1), a maximum value of Pi may not exceed the reasonable maximum use age M of the gas meter of the model. If the calculation result exceeds M, Pi=M.
In some embodiments of the present disclosure, for target gas meters that cannot use the target replacement prediction model to determine the target replacement time, the target replacement time of the target gas meter may be determined, based on the predicted replacement reference target time of the target reference gas meter similar to the target gas meter, by using the first preset algorithm and the second preset algorithm. Thus, the basis for predicting the target time may be more reasonable, the accuracy of the calculated target time may be guaranteed, and the demand of the user for quickly and accurately obtaining the replacement time of the gas meter may be met.
The present disclosure also provides a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, which stores computer instructions. When the computer reads the computer instructions in the storage medium, the computer may execute the method for gas meter replacement prompt based on a smart gas Internet of Things as described in any of the embodiments of the present disclosure.
