AIR-CONDITIONER BASED ON PARAMETER LEARNING USING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE, CLOUD SERVER, AND METHOD OF OPERATING AND CONTROLLING THEREOF
First Claim
1. An air conditioner, comprising:
- an indoor unit comprising a blowing unit configured to discharge air;
an outdoor unit configured to supply compressed refrigerant to the indoor unit, such that the supplied refrigerant exchanges heat with the air before the air is discharged from the blowing unit;
at least one processor; and
at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising;
generating at least one parameter in a first operation mode of the air conditioner, wherein the first operation mode is operated only within a preset time range;
controlling, based on an operation mode information, at least one of (i) the blowing unit of the indoor unit to change a wind direction and an air volume of the discharged air, or (ii) the outdoor unit, wherein the operation mode information comprises at least one result factor that is obtained from at least one machine-learning network; and
performing an operation of switching to a second operation mode after a time period of operation in the first operation mode,wherein an absolute value of a first temperature change rate during the first operation mode is greater than an absolute value of a second temperature change rate during the second operation mode.

Abstract
An air conditioner includes: an indoor unit including a blowing unit to discharge air; an outdoor unit supplying compressed refrigerant to the indoor unit, to exchange heat with the air before discharge. The air conditioner also includes at least one computer memory operably connectable to at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed, perform operations that include: generating at least one parameter in a first operation mode, which is operated only within a preset time range; controlling, based on an operation mode information, at least one of (i) the blowing unit to change a wind direction and an air volume, or (ii) the outdoor unit; and switching to a second operation mode after a time period of operation in the first operation mode. The operation mode information includes at least one result factor obtained from at least one machine-learning network.

12. A method of controlling an air conditioner based on machine-learning, the air conditioner comprising (i) an indoor unit having a blowing unit configured to discharge air, and (ii) an outdoor unit configured to supply compressed refrigerant to the indoor unit, the method comprising:
-
operating the blowing unit to discharge air in a first operation mode of the air conditioner within a preset time range, wherein the first operation mode is operated only within a preset time range; generating at least one parameter in the first operation mode of the air conditioner; controlling, based on an operation mode information, at least one of (i) the blowing unit of the indoor unit to change a wind direction and an air volume of the discharged air, or (ii) the outdoor unit, wherein the operation mode information comprises at least one result factor that is obtained from at least one machine-learning network; and performing an operation of switching to a second operation mode after a time period of operation in the first operation mode, wherein an absolute value of a first temperature change rate during the first operation mode is greater than an absolute value of a second temperature change rate during the second operation mode. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A cloud server, comprising:
-
a communication unit configured to communicate with a plurality of air conditioners; at least one processor; and at least one computer memory operably connectable to the at least one processor and storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, perform operations comprising; receiving, from each of the plurality of air conditioners, at least one parameter generated in a first operation mode of respective air conditioner, wherein the at least one parameter is related to at least one temperature individually set in the respective air conditioner; for each of the plurality of air conditioners, using at least one machine-learning network to process the at least one parameter received from the respective air conditioner, and generating, through a learning process, operation mode information for the respective air conditioner; and transmitting, to each of the plurality of air conditioners, the operation mode information for the respective air conditioner, wherein the operation mode information comprises data to set a second operation mode of the respective air conditioner after a period of time of operating the first operation mode, and wherein an absolute value of a first temperature change rate during the first operation mode is greater than an absolute value of a second temperature change rate during the second operation mode of the respective air conditioner. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)
