Supplemental data for "Air quality management for coastal urban centres using stochastic and machine learning techniques"
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This research addressed specific air management issues faced by regulatory agencies to allow better oversight given constrained budgets and technical staff. Data sets were collected from air monitoring stations in Kuwait to allow development, testing, and validation of stochastic and machine learning techniques. Drone traffic study: A method to determine vehicle fleet composition and vehicle density on a road was developed that employed an unmanned aerial system to capture images of cars stacked at a signalized intersection. The images were processed using photogrammetry software to create a digital elevation model that allowed measurement of distances and fleet composition. Air quality study: Predicting future air pollution concentrations was accomplished using a deep learning technique consisting of a recurrent neural network with long short term memory. Datasets from a single air monitoring station were used to train and test the model. The resulting model was able to predict 8 hr averaged ozone out to 72 hours with a Mean Absolute Error of less than 2 ppb, outperforming traditional methods.
Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
