Generally, air pollution refer to the release of various pollutants into the air which are threatening the human health and planet as well. The air pollution is the major dangerous vicious to the humanity ever faced. It causes major damage to animals, plants etc., if this keeps on continuing, the human being will face serious situations in the upcoming years. The major pollutants are from the transport and industries. So, to prevent this problem major sectors have to predict the air quality from transport and industries .In existing project there are many disadvantages. The project is about estimating the PM2.5 concentration by designing a photograph based method. But photographic method is not alone sufficient to calculate PM2.5 because it contains only one of the concentration of pollutants and it calculates only PM2.5 so there are some missing out of the major pollutants and the information needed for controlling the pollution .So thereby we proposed the machine learning techniques by user interface of GUI application. In this multiple dataset can be combined from the different source to form a generalized dataset and various machine learning algorithms are used to get the results with maximum accuracy. From comparing various machine learning algorithms we can obtain the best accuracy result. Our evaluation gives the comprehensive manual to sensitivity evaluation of model parameters with regard to overall performance in prediction of air high quality pollutants through accuracy calculation. Additionally to discuss and compare the performance of machine learning algorithms from the dataset with evaluation of GUI based user interface air quality prediction by attributes.

Air pollution is the largest environmental and public health challenge in the world today. Air pollution leads to adverse effects on human health, climate and ecosystem. Air is getting polluted because of release of Toxic gases by industries, vehicular emissions and increased concentration of harmful gases and particulate matter in the atmosphere. In order to overcome these issues an IoT based air and sound pollution monitoring system is designed. To design this monitoring system, machine learning algorithms K-NN and Naive Bayes are used. K-Nearest Neighbour and Naive Bayes are machine learning algorithms used to predict the status of pollution present in the environment. In this system, analog to digital converter, global service mobile communication, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, carbon monoxide and sound sensors are interfaced with raspberry pi using serial cable. The sensor data is uploaded in thinkspeak (IoT) and webpage. This data is compared with the trained data to check accuracy. To calculate the accuracy of both algorithms, Python code is developed using python software tool.

Abstract: Air-pollution is one of the main threats for developed societies. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), pollution is the main cause of deaths among children aged under five years. Smart cities are called to play a decisive role to increase such pollution in real-time. The increase in air pollution due to fossil fuel consumption as well as its ill effects on the climate has made air pollution forecasting an important research area in today’s times. Deployment of the Internet of things (IoT) based sensors has considerably changed the dynamics of predicting air quality. prediction of spatio-temporal data has been one of the major challenges in creating a good predictive model. There are many different approaches which have been used to create an accurate predictive model. Primitive predictive machine learning algorithms like simple linear regression have failed to produce accurate results primarily due to lack of computing power but also due to lack of optimization techniques. A recent development in deep learning as well as improvements in computing resources has increased the accuracy of predicting time series data. However, with large spatio-temporal data sets spanning over years. Employing regression models on the entire data can cause per date predictions to be corrupted. In this work, we look at dealing with pre-processing the times series. However, pre-processing involves a similarity measure, we explore the use of Dynamic Time Warping (DTW). K-means is then used to classify the spatio-temporal pollution data over a period of 16 years from 2000 to 2016. Here Mean Absolute error (MAE) and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) have been used as evaluation criteria for the comparison of regression models. Keywords: Spatio-temporal data, Primitive predictive machine learning algorithms, regression models
