Nowadays, air pollution is getting an extreme problem that affects the whole environment. Due to the dangerous effects of air pollution on human’s health, this study proposes an air pollution prediction system. Because of the high dust pollution in Saudi Arabia, and the fact that there is no system for predicting the percentage of air pollution in it, this study applies an air pollution prediction system to the most affected area in Saudi Arabia. This paper aims to forecast the concentrations of PM10 particles due to their dangerous effects. This study aims to align with the Saudi vision 2030 by having an ideal environment and act in an efficient way in case of a warning situation. It applies a deep learning technique, which called Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) to predict the air pollution in Saudi Arabia and achieved exceptional results due to the low error rates that have been obtained by this study. The error rate of Mean Absolute Error (MAE) is 0.98, for Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) is 8.68 and 0.999 for R-Squared.

Air pollution has been a looming issue of the 21st century that has also significantly impacted the surrounding environment and societal health. Recently, previous studies have conducted extensive research on air pollution and air quality monitoring. Despite this, the fields of air pollution and air quality monitoring remain plagued with unsolved problems. In this study, the Pollution Weather Prediction System (PWP) is proposed to perform air pollution prediction for outdoor sites for various pollution parameters. In the presented research work, we introduced a PWP system configured with pollution-sensing units, such as SDS021, MQ07-CO, NO2-B43F, and Aeroqual Ozone (O3). These sensing units were utilized to collect and measure various pollutant levels, such as PM2.5, PM10, CO, NO2, and O3, for 90 days at Symbiosis International University, Pune, Maharashtra, India. The data collection was carried out between the duration of December 2019 to February 2020 during the winter. The investigation results validate the success of the presented PWP system. In the conducted experiments, linear regression and artificial neural network (ANN)-based AQI (air quality index) predictions were performed. Furthermore, the presented study also found that the customized linear regression methodology outperformed other machine-learning methods, such as linear, ridge, Lasso, Bayes, Huber, Lars, Lasso-lars, stochastic gradient descent (SGD), and ElasticNet regression methodologies, and the customized ANN regression methodology used in the conducted experiments. The overall AQI values of the air pollutants were calculated based on the summation of the AQI values of all the presented air pollutants. In the end, the web and mobile interfaces were developed to display air pollution prediction values of a variety of air pollutants.

Air pollution prediction was not an easy task few years back. With the increasing computation power and wide availability of the datasets, air pollution prediction problem is solved to some extend. Inspired by the deep learning models, in this paper three techniques for air pollution prediction have been proposed. The models used includes recurrent neural network (RNN), Long short-term memory (LSTM) and a hybrid combination of Convolutional neural network (CNN) and LSTM models. These models are tested by comparing MSE loss on air pollution test of Belgium. The validation loss on RNN is 0.0045, LSTM is 0.00441 and CNN and LSTM is 0.0049. The loss on testing dataset for these models are 0.00088, 0.00441 and 0.0049 respectively.
