The concentration of PM is one of the main factors in evaluating the air quality in environmental science. The severe level of PM directly affects the public health, economics and social development. Due to the strong nonlinearity and instability of ...
Nowadays, owing to population growth, increasing environmental pollution, and lifestyle changes, the number of asthmatics has significantly increased. Therefore, the purpose of our study was to determine the asthma-prone areas in Tehran, Iran conside...
Elemental identification of individual microsized aerosol particles is an important topic in air pollution studies. However, simultaneous and quantitative analysis of multiple constituents in a single aerosol particle with the noncontact in situ mann...

Air quality prediction is a global hot issue, and PM is an important factor affecting air quality. Due to complicated causes of formation, PM prediction is a thorny and challenging task. In this paper, a novel deep learning model named temperature-ba...
Reliable estimates of outdoor air pollution concentrations are needed to support global actions to improve public health. We developed a new approach to estimating annual average outdoor nitrogen dioxide (NO) concentrations using approximately 20,000...
Clinical impact of fine particulate matter (PM) air pollution on incident atrial fibrillation (AF) had not been well studied. We used integrated machine learning (ML) to build several incident AF prediction models that include average hourly measurem...
INTRODUCTION: Estimating PM concentrations and their prediction uncertainties at a high spatiotemporal resolution is important for air pollution health effect studies. This is particularly challenging for California, which has high variability in nat...
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...

The activity pattern is a significant factor in identifying hotspots of personal exposure to air pollutants, such as PM. However, the recording process of an activity pattern can be annoying to study participants, because they are often asked to brin...
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...
