Many countries worldwide have poor air quality due to the emission of particulate matter (i.e., PM10 and PM2.5), which has led to concerns about human health impacts in urban areas. In this study, we developed models to predict fine PM concentrations using long short-term memory (LSTM) and deep autoencoder (DAE) methods, and compared the model results in terms of root mean square error (RMSE). We applied the models to hourly air quality data from 25 stations in Seoul, South Korea, for the period from 1 January 2015, to 31 December 2018. Fine PM concentrations were predicted for the 10 days following this period, at an optimal learning rate of 0.01 for 100 epochs with batch sizes of 32 for LSTM model, and DAEs model performed best with batch size 64. The proposed models effectively predicted fine PM concentrations, with the LSTM model showing slightly better performance. With our forecasting model, it is possible to give reliable fine dust prediction information for the area where the user is located.

Due to the increasingly serious air pollution problem, air quality prediction has been an important approach for air pollution control and prevention. Many prediction methods have been proposed in recent years to improve the prediction accuracy. However, most of the existing methods either did not consider the spatial relationships between monitoring stations or overlooked the strength of the correlation. Excluding the spatial correlation or including too much weak spatial inputs could influence the modeling and reduce the prediction accuracy. To overcome the limitation, this paper proposes a correlation filtered spatial-temporal long short-term memory (CFST-LSTM) model for air quality prediction. The model is designed based on the original LSTM model and is equipped with a spatial-temporal filter (STF) layer. This layer not only takes into account the spatial influence between stations, but also can extract highly correlated sequential data and drop weaker ones. To evaluate the proposed CFST-LSTM model, hourly PM2.5 concentration data of California are collected and preprocessed. Several experiments are conducted. The experimental results show that the CFST-LSTM model can effectively improve the prediction accuracy and has great generalization.

Indonesia menempati peringkat ke-6 dari 98 negara paling berpolusi di dunia pada tahun 2019. Di tahun tersebut, rata-rata AQI (Air Quality Index) sebesar 141 dan rata-rata konsentrasi PM2.5 sebesar 51.71 μg/m3 yang lima kali lipat diatas rekomendasi World Health Organization (WHO). Salah satu kota penyumbang polusi udara yaitu Jakarta. Berdasarkan data ISPU (Indeks Standar Pencemar Udara) yang diambil dari SPKU (Stasiun Pemantau Kualitas Udara) Dinas Lingkungan Hidup DKI Jakarta melampirkan pada tahun 2019, Jakarta memiliki kualitas udara sangat tidak sehat. Oleh karena itu perlu adanya model Artificial Intelligence dalam memperdiksi rata-rata tingkat zat berbahaya pada udara di DKI Jakarta. Salah satu algoritma yang dapat diterapkan dalam membuat model prediksi dengan menggunakan data timeseries adalah Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM). Tujuan dari penelitian ini membangun model prediksi rata-rata ISPU di DKI Jakarta menggunakan metode LSTM yang berguna bagi para pemangku kepentingan dibidang lingkungan hidup khususnya mengenai polusi udara. Penelitian mengenai prediksi rata-rata ISPU di DKI Jakarta menggunakan metode LSTM, menghasilkan nilai evaluasi MAPE 12.28%. Berdasarkan hasil evaluasi MAPE yang diperoleh, model LSTM yang digunakan untuk prediksi rata-rata ISPU di DKI Jakarta masuk kedalam kategori akurat.

Air pollution sources and the hazards of high particulate matter 2.5 (PM2.5) concentrations among air pollutants have been well documented. Shipping emissions have been identified as a source of air pollution; therefore, it is necessary to predict air pollutant concentrations to manage seaport air quality. However, air pollution prediction models rarely consider shipping emissions. Here, the PM2.5 concentrations of the Busan North and Busan New Ports were predicted using a recurrent neural network and long short-term memory model by employing the shipping activity data of Busan Port. In contrast to previous studies that employed only air quality and meteorological data as input data, our model considered shipping activity data as an emission source. The model was trained from 1 January 2019 to 31 January 2020 and predictions and verifications were performed from 1–28 February 2020. Verifications revealed an index of agreements (IOA) of 0.975 and 0.970 and root mean square errors of 4.88 and 5.87 µg/m3 for Busan North Port and Busan New Port, respectively. Regarding the results based on the activity data, a previous study reported an IOA of 0.62–0.84, with a higher predictive power of 0.970–0.975. Thus, the extended approach offers a useful strategy to prevent PM2.5 air pollutant-induced damage in seaports.

Sleep is the most important physiological process related to human health. The development of society has accelerated the pace of people’s lives and has also increased people’s life pressure. As a result, more and more people suffer from reduced sleep quality, and the resulting diseases are also increasing. In response to this problem, this study proposes a sleep quality detection and management method based on electroencephalogram (EEG). The detection of sleep quality is mainly achieved by staging sleep EEG signals. First, wavelet packet decomposition (WPD) preprocesses the collected original EEG to extract the four rhythm waves of EEG. Second, the relative energy characteristics and nonlinear characteristics of each rhythm wave are extracted. The multisample entropy (MSE) values of different scales are calculated as the main features, and the rest are auxiliary features. Finally, the long short-term memory (LSTM) model is applied to classify the extracted sleep features, and the final result is obtained. Experiments were conducted in the MIT-BIH public database. The experimental results show that the method used in this article has a high accuracy rate for sleep quality detection. For the detected sleep quality data, the data are managed in combination with the mobile terminal software. Management is mainly embodied in two aspects. One is to query and display historical sleep quality data. The second is that when there are periodic abnormalities in the detected sleep quality data, the user will be reminded so that the user can respond in time to ensure physical fitness.
