Abstract

In this seminar, we will introduce the Kalman filter algorithm and its application to develop the time-varying models for the one-step-ahead prediction of the daily averaged PM10 concentrations in Macau. The models will be compared to the artificial neural network model, which is widely used in the literature. Also, we will introduce the Bayesian approach and its usage to select the optimal model among a set of proposed air quality models.
