A Conditional Probability Density Function for Forecasting Ozone Air Quality Data
نویسنده
چکیده
Probabilistic forecasts are often employed to estimate the potential for high pollutant concentrations. To develop a probabilistic forecast of ozone concentrations, we suggest that use be made of the inherent properties of seasonality and autocorrelation in 0, time series. A non-stationary, autocorrelated stochastic process is used to simulate a conditional probability density function (p.d.f.) which quantifies the effects of seasonality and autocorrelation. To illustrate the utility of such a model, the simulated conditional p.d.f. is shown to be clearly superior to an ordinary p.d.f. developed from summer ozone data. Key word index: O,, autocorrelation, seasonality, simulation, non-stationarity, forecasting.

Forecasting Ozone Density in Tehran Air Using a Smart Data-Driven Approach
Introduction: As a metropolitan area in Iran, Tehran is exposed to damage from air pollution due to its large population and pollutants from various sources. Accordingly, research on damage induced by air pollution in this city seems necessary. The main purpose of this study was to forecast ozone in the city of Tehran. Considering the hazards of ozone (O3) gas on human health and the environmen...

Although knowing the time of the occurrence of the earthquakes is vital and helpful, unfortunately it is still unpredictable. By the way there is an urgent need to find a method to foresee this catastrophic event. There are a lot of methods for forecasting the time of earthquake occurrence. Another method for predicting that is to know probability density function of time interval between earth...

In this paper, we show that the Chapman-Kolmogorov formula could be used as a recursive formula for computing the m-step-ahead conditional density of a Markov bilinear model. The stationary marginal probability density function of the model may be approximated by the m-step-ahead conditional density for sufficiently large m.
