Air Pollutants Prediction in Shenzhen Based on ARIMA and Prophet Method

Abstract

In order to improve the accuracy of predicting the air pollutants in Shenzhen, a hybrid model based on ARIMA (Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average model) and prophet for mixing time and space relationships was proposed. First, ARIMA and Prophet method were applied to train the data from 11 air quality monitoring stations and gave them different weights. Then, finished the calculation about weight of impact in each air quality monitoring station to final results. Finally, built up the hybrid model and did the error evaluation. The result of the experiments illustrated that this hybrid method can improve the air pollutants prediction in Shenzhen.
