Air pollution is one of the most important environmental issues that annual causes to mortality large number of people around the world. So, investigating, measuring, and predicting the concentrations of different pollutants in various areas play an important role in preventing the production of this pollutant sand planning to reduce them by people and relevant authorities. One of the new models that play an important role in measuring and predicting pollution is artificial neural network or regression methods. Therefore, this study is trying to predict air pollution in Yasouj by using artificial neural network in 2014. Because the evidences showed that Yasouj due to uncontrolled growth of industrial and urban transport is subject to various air pollutants such as carbon monoxide and particulate matter. Overall, the results of the assessment and prediction of concentration of pollutants of Yasouj by artificial neural network showed that sigmoid transfer function to the hyperbolic tangent function is more efficient in measuring the concentration of pollutants.

The application of the principal component analysis and artificial neural network method in forecasting 137Cs behaviour in the air as the function of meteorological parameters is presented. The model was optimized and tested using 137Cs specific activities obtained by standard gamma-ray spectrometric analysis of air samples collected in Belgrade (Serbia) during 2009-2011 and meteorological data for the same period. Low correlation (r = 0.20) between experimental values of 137Cs specific activities and those predicted by artificial neural network was obtained. This suggests that artificial neural network in the case of prediction of 137Cs specific activity, using temperature, insolation, and global Sun warming does not perform well, which can be explained by the relative independence of 137Cs specific activity of particular meteorological parameters and not by the ineffectiveness of artificial neural network in relating these parameters in general.

In recent years, the arisen of air pollution in urban area address much attention globally. The air pollutants has emerged detrimental effects on health and living conditions. Time series forecasting is the important method nowadays with the ability to predict the future events. In this study, the forecasting is based on 10 years monthly data of Air Pollution Index (API) located in industrial and residential monitoring stations area in Malaysia. The autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA), fuzzy time series (FTS) and artificial neural network (ANNs) were used as the methods to forecast the API values. The performance of each method is compare using the root mean square error (RMSE). The result shows that the ANNs give the smallest forecasting error to forecast API compared to FTS and ARIMA. Therefore, the ANNs could be consider a reliable approach in early warning system to general public in understanding the air quality status that might effect their health and also in decision making processes for air quality control and management.
