What Influences Low-cost Sensor Data Calibration? - A Systematic Assessment of Algorithms, Duration, and Predictor Selection by Lu Liang, Jacob Daniels

“…Although algorithms react differently to the number of predictors, their performance was typically boosted by adding more predictors, especially the particle count and humidity. Our study not only describes an approach of sophisticated data-driven calibration for practical applications, but also provides insights into the compounding impacts of parameters, samples, and predictors in algorithm performance.…”
