Embodiments of the present disclosure allow accuracy of prediction of pollution to be improved. In operation, a prediction of pollution in a future time period is determined. The prediction of pollution indicates predicted data related to a pollution index. Then, matching historical data for the predicted data is determined from historical data related to the pollution index. The matching historical data is obtained in a historical time period corresponding to the future time period. Based on the matching historical data, the prediction of pollution is refined.

An embodiment of the invention provides a method where an air quality forecast having an air quality turning point is received. A processor identifies an updated air quality turning point based on weather observation information. An air quality forecast at the updated air quality turning point is generated with the weather observation information and human input, which can include human knowledge from a weather expert or an air quality expert. An air quality forecast for a first time period directly prior to the updated air quality turning point is generated with the air quality forecast at the updated air quality turning point and the human input. An air quality forecast for a second time period directly after the updated air quality turning point is generated with the air quality forecast for the first time period, the air quality forecast at the updated air quality turning point, and the human input.
