Air pollution has become a serious problem threatening human health. Effective prediction models can help reduce the adverse effects of air pollutants. Accurate predictions of air pollutant concentration can provide a scientific basis for air pollution prevention and control. However, the previous air pollution-related prediction models mainly processed air quality prediction, or the prediction of a single or two air pollutants. Meanwhile, the temporal and spatial characteristics and multiple factors of pollutants were not fully considered. Herein, we establish a deep learning model for an atmospheric pollutant memory network (LSTM) by both applying the one-dimensional multi-scale convolution kernel (ODMSCNN) and a long-short-term memory network (LSTM) on the basis of temporal and spatial characteristics. The temporal and spatial characteristics combine the respective advantages of CNN and LSTM networks. First, ODMSCNN is utilized to extract the temporal and spatial characteristics of air pollutant-related data to form a feature vector, and then the feature vector is input into the LSTM network to predict the concentration of air pollutants. The data set comes from the daily concentration data and hourly concentration data of six atmospheric pollutants (PM2.5, PM10, NO2, CO, O3, SO2) and 17 types of meteorological data in Xi’an. Daily concentration data prediction, hourly concentration data prediction, group data prediction and multi-factor prediction were used to verify the effectiveness of the model. In general, the air pollutant concentration prediction model based on ODMSCNN-LSTM shows a better prediction effect compared with multi-layer perceptron (MLP), CNN, and LSTM models.
