Air pollution has long been a serious environmental health challenge, especially in metropolitan cities, where air pollutant concentrations are exacerbated by the street canyon effect and high building density. Whilst accurately monitoring and forecasting air pollution are highly crucial, existing data-driven models fail to fully address the complex interaction between air pollution and urban dynamics. Our Deep-AIR, a novel hybrid deep learning framework that combines a convolutional neural network with a long short-term memory network, aims to address this gap to provide fine-grained city-wide air pollution estimation and station-wide forecast. Our proposed framework creates 1x1 convolution layers to strengthen the learning of cross-feature spatial interaction between air pollution and important urban dynamic features, particularly road density, building density/height, and street canyon effect. Using Hong Kong and Beijing as case studies, Deep-AIR achieves a higher accuracy than our baseline models. Our model attains an accuracy of 67.6%, 77.2%, and 66.1% in fine-grained hourly estimation, 1-hr, and 24-hr air pollution forecast for Hong Kong, and an accuracy of 65.0%, 75.3%, and 63.5% for Beijing. Our saliency analysis has revealed that for Hong Kong, street canyon and road density are the best estimators for NO2, while meteorology is the best estimator for PM2.5.

Urban air pollution is a major environmental problem affecting human health and quality of life. Monitoring stations have been established to continuously obtain air quality information, but they do not cover all areas. Thus, there are numerous metho ds for spatially fine-grained air quality inference. Since existing methods aim to infer air quality of locations only in monitored cities, they do not assume inferring air quality in unmonitored cities. In this paper, we first study the air quality inference in unmonitored cities. To accurately infer air quality in unmonitored cities, we propose a neural network-based approach AIREX. The novelty of AIREX is employing a mixture-of-experts approach, which is a machine learning technique based on the divide-and-conquer principle, to learn correlations of air quality between multiple cities. To further boost the performance, it employs attention mechanisms to compute impacts of air quality inference from the monitored cities to the locations in the unmonitored city. We show, through experiments on a real-world air quality dataset, that AIREX achieves higher accuracy than state-of-the-art methods.
Air pollution has a wide range of implications on agriculture, economy, road accidents, and health. In this paper, we use novel deep learning methods for short-term (multi-step-ahead) air-quality prediction in selected parts of Delhi, India. Our deep learning methods comprise of long short-term memory (LSTM) network models which also include some rece
Convolutional neural network (CNN) has been widely exploited for simultaneous and proportional myoelectric control due to its capability of deriving informative, representative and transferable features from surface electromyography (sEMG). However, muscle contractions have strong temporal dependencies but conventional CNN can only exploit spatial correlations. Considering that long short-term memory neural network (LSTM) is able to capture long-term and non-linear dynamics of time-series data, in this paper we propose a CNNLSTM hybrid framework to fully explore the temporal-spatial information in sEMG. Firstly, CNN is utilized to extract deep features from sEMG spectrum, then these features are processed via LSTM-based sequence regression to estimate wrist kinematics. Six healthy participants are recruited for the participatory collection and motion analysis under various experimental setups. Estimation results in both intra-session and inter-session evaluations illustrate that CNN-LSTM significantly outperforms CNN and conventional machine learning approaches, particularly when complex wrist movements are activated.
Urban air pollution has become a major environmental problem that threatens public health. It has become increasingly important to infer fine-grained urban air quality based on existing monitoring stations. One of the challenges is how to effectively select some relevant stations for air quality inference. In this paper, we propose a novel model based on reinforcement learning for urban air quality inference. The model consists of two modules: a station selector and an air quality regressor. The station selector dynamically selects the most relevant monitoring stations when inferring air quality. The air quality regressor takes in the selected stations and makes air quality inference with deep neural network. We conduct experiments on a real-world air quality dataset and our approach achieves the highest performance compared with several popular solutions, and the experiments show significant effectiveness of proposed model in tackling problems of air quality inference.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is becoming a critical component in the defense industry, as recently demonstrated by DARPA`s AlphaDogfight Trials (ADT). ADT sought to vet the feasibility of AI algorithms capable of piloting an F-16 in simulated air-to- air combat. As a participant in ADT, Lockheed Martin`s (LM) approach combines a hierarchical architecture with maximum-entropy reinforcement learning (RL), integrates expert knowledge through reward shaping, and supports modularity of policies. This approach achieved a $2^{nd}$ place finish in the final ADT event (among eight total competitors) and defeated a graduate of the US Air Forces (USAF) F-16 Weapons Instructor Course in match play.
