Predicting the amount of toxic metals and metalloids in silt loading using neural networks.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Material deposited on road surfaces, called road dust, are known to contain different toxic elements. According to particle size, there are different fractions. Particles with an aerodynamic size less than or equal to 75 µm are called silt loading. A...

The interpretable machine learning model for depression associated with heavy metals via EMR mining method.

Scientific reports
Limited research exists on the association between depression and heavy metal exposure. This study aims to develop an interpretable and efficient machine learning (ML) model with robust performance to identify depression linked to heavy metal exposur...

Assessing potential toxic metal threats in tea growing soils of India with soil health indices and machine learning technologies.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
This study explores the impact of potentially toxic metals (PTMs) contamination in Indian tea-growing soils on ecosystems, soil quality, and human health using machine learning and statistical analysis. A total of 148 surface soil samples were collec...

Risk assessment of potentially toxic elements and mapping of groundwater pollution indices using soft computer models in an agricultural area, Northeast Algeria.

Journal of hazardous materials
Groundwater (GW) quality and contamination by potentially toxic elements (PTEs) are major concerns for environmental sustainability, particularly in arid regions. The aim of this study was to assess the human health risks associated with GW contamina...

Addressing data handling shortcomings in machine learning studies on biochar for heavy metal remediation.

Journal of hazardous materials
Recent advancements in machine learning (ML) technologies have significantly enhanced their applications in environmental sciences, particularly in the domains of soil and water remediation. This paper reviews recent studies that employ ML to optimiz...

Unlocking the potential of Eudrilus eugeniae in mitigating the pollution risk of pesticides and heavy metals: Fostering machine learning tactics to optimize environmental health.

The Science of the total environment
Agro-industrial waste management remains a critical challenge in sustainable development, particularly due to contamination with heterogeneous micropollutants such as heavy metals (HMs), pesticides, and polyphenols. This study explores an innovative ...

Construction of multi-metal interspecies correlation estimation models based on typical soil scenarios.

Environmental research
The ecological risk assessment of metals in soils is essential for soil pollution management. However, regional soil heterogeneity and species diversity need to be considered when making these assessments. Therefore, an interspecies correlation estim...

Uncovering soil heavy metal pollution hotspots and influencing mechanisms through machine learning and spatial analysis.

Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
Soil heavy metal (HM) pollution is a significant and widespread environmental issue in China, highlighting the need to quantify influencing factors and identify priority concern areas for effective prevention and management. Based on published litera...

Machine learning prediction of glaucoma by heavy metal exposure: results from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 2005 to 2008.

Scientific reports
Using follow-up data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) database, we have collected information on 2572 subjects and used generalized linear model to investigate the association between urinary heavy metal levels and g...

Development of a machine learning model related to explore the association between heavy metal exposure and alveolar bone loss among US adults utilizing SHAP: a study based on NHANES 2015-2018.

BMC public health
BACKGROUND: Alveolar bone loss (ABL) is common in modern society. Heavy metal exposure is usually considered to be a risk factor for ABL. Some studies revealed a positive trend found between urinary heavy metals and periodontitis using multiple logis...
