Artificial intelligence accuracy assessment in NO2 concentration forecasting of metropolises air

Abstract Air quality has been the main concern worldwide and Nitrous oxide (NO2) is one of the pollutants that have a significant effect on human health and environment. This study was conducted to compare the regression analysis and neural network model for predicting NO2 pollutants in the air of T...
