Abstract:
To improve the prediction accuracy of air pollutants of the mass concentration of PM
2.5, a method of PM
2.5 mass concentration prediction based on collected image data were proposed. First, image data were acquired by mobile phones or cameras, and then feature vectors related to PM
2.5 mass concentration were extracted by image quality analysis model as input. A support vector regression (SVR) prediction model based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm (PSO-SVR) was established to estimate the mass concentration of PM
2.5. Results show that the prediction accuracy and efficiency of the PSO-SVR model are better than that of the SVR model and the support vector regression model optimized by genetic algorithm (GA-SVR).
