Separating Daily 1 km PM Inorganic Chemical Composition in China since 2000 via Deep Learning Integrating Ground, Satellite, and Model Data.

Environmental science & technology
Fine particulate matter (PM) chemical composition has strong and diverse impacts on the planetary environment, climate, and health. These effects are still not well understood due to limited surface observations and uncertainties in chemical model si...

Modelling and optimization study to improve the filtration performance of fibrous filter.

Chemosphere
Fibrous filter made up of non-woven material was utilized in many industrial applications for increasing the collection efficiency and the quality factor. But there exists a competing effect among the fibre diameter, filtration efficiency, pressure d...

Virtual Impactor-Based Label-Free Pollen Detection using Holography and Deep Learning.

ACS sensors
Exposure to bio-aerosols such as pollen can lead to adverse health effects. There is a need for a portable and cost-effective device for long-term monitoring and quantification of various types of pollen. To address this need, we present a mobile and...

The Science of the total environment
The latest Multi-angle Imaging Spectro Radiometer (MISR) Version (V) 23 aerosol optical depth (AOD) products were released, with an improved spatial resolution of 4.4 km, providing an unprecedented opportunity for the refined regional application. To...

Dynamic Imaging and Characterization of Volatile Aerosols in E-Cigarette Emissions Using Deep Learning-Based Holographic Microscopy.

ACS sensors
Various volatile aerosols have been associated with adverse health effects; however, characterization of these aerosols is challenging due to their dynamic nature. Here, we present a method that directly measures the volatility of particulate matter ...

Understanding global changes in fine-mode aerosols during 2008-2017 using statistical methods and deep learning approach.

Environment international
Despite their extremely small size, fine-mode aerosols have significant impacts on the environment, climate, and human health. However, current understandings of global changes in fine-mode aerosols are limited. In this study, we employed newly devel...

New interpretable deep learning model to monitor real-time PM concentrations from satellite data.

Environment international
Particulate matter with a mass concentration of particles with a diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM) is a key air quality parameter. A real-time knowledge of PM is highly valuable for lowering the risk of detrimental impacts on human health. To achieve th...

Raman spectroscopy of potential bio-hazards commonly found in bio-aerosols.

Spectrochimica acta. Part A, Molecular and biomolecular spectroscopy
Pathogenic bio-aerosols are a threat to public health today, and thus quick detection and identification is of paramount importance. In this study, Raman spectroscopy was used to test 14 types of pollens, one type of fungus and two types of bacteria ...

Heavy metals in submicronic particulate matter (PM) from a Chinese metropolitan city predicted by machine learning models.

Chemosphere
The aim of this study was to establish a method for predicting heavy metal concentrations in PM (aerosol particles with an aerodynamic diameter ≤ 1.0 μm) based on back propagation artificial neural network (BP-ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) me...

Fast Pathogen Identification Using Single-Cell Matrix-Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization-Aerosol Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry Data and Deep Learning Methods.

Analytical chemistry
In diagnostics of infectious diseases, matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS) can be applied for the identification of pathogenic microorganisms. However, to achieve a trustworthy identification fr...
