Is replacing missing values of PM constituents with estimates using machine learning better for source apportionment than exclusion or median replacement?

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
East Asian countries have been conducting source apportionment of fine particulate matter (PM) by applying positive matrix factorization (PMF) to hourly constituent concentrations. However, some of the constituent data from the supersites in South Ko...

Short-term prediction of PM2.5 concentration by hybrid neural network based on sequence decomposition.

PloS one
Accurate forecasting of PM2.5 concentrations serves as a critical tool for mitigating air pollution. This study introduces a novel hybrid prediction model, termed MIC-CEEMDAN-CNN-BiGRU, for short-term forecasting of PM2.5 concentrations using a 24-ho...

Air pollution and mortality for cancer of the respiratory system in Italy: an explainable artificial intelligence approach.

Frontiers in public health
Respiratory system cancer, encompassing lung, trachea and bronchus cancer, constitute a substantial and evolving public health challenge. Since pollution plays a prominent cause in the development of this disease, identifying which substances are mos...

Predicting carbon dioxide emissions in the United States of America using machine learning algorithms.

Environmental science and pollution research international
Carbon dioxide (CO) emissions result from human activities like burning fossil fuels. CO is a greenhouse gas, contributing to global warming and climate change. Efforts to reduce CO emissions include transitioning to renewable energy. Monitoring and ...

Unmasking the sky: high-resolution PM prediction in Texas using machine learning techniques.

Journal of exposure science & environmental epidemiology
BACKGROUND: Although PM (fine particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 µm) is an air pollutant of great concern in Texas, limited regulatory monitors pose a significant challenge for decision-making and environmental studies.

BREATH-Net: a novel deep learning framework for NO prediction using bi-directional encoder with transformer.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Air pollution poses a significant challenge in numerous urban regions, negatively affecting human well-being. Nitrogen dioxide (NO) is a prevalent atmospheric pollutant that can potentially exacerbate respiratory ailments and cardiovascular disorders...
