Classification: CPC F  G | IPC F

Claim 9:
10. A method for controlling an electronic apparatus controlling an air conditioner, the method comprising:
acquiring weather information comprising an external temperature of a region where the air conditioner is installed and information on a space comprising a temperature of the space where the air conditioner is installed;
training a neural network model based on the weather information and the information on the space, where the information on the space includes information on a type of use of the space where the air conditioner is installed, information on a location within a building in which the space exists, information on a number and size of windows present in the space, and a number of occupants of the space;
based on acquiring driving information of the air conditioner comprising a set temperature and the acquired temperature of the space through a communication interface, inputting the acquired temperature of the space and the external temperature into the neural network model and acquiring predicted temperature information per time for the space;
determining whether a defect exists in the air conditioner based on a difference between the predicted temperature information of the neural network model and the acquired temperature of the space; and
based on determining that a defect exists in the air conditioner, generating a notification signal,
wherein the acquiring predicted temperature information comprises:
acquiring a heat characteristic for the space based on the acquired temperature of the space and the external temperature, and
correcting the predicted temperature information based on the heat characteristic, and

wherein the heat characteristic comprises a temperature distribution for the space where the air conditioner is installed.
