Hybrid framework for improved PM2.5 prediction based on seasonal-trend decomposition and tailored component processing by Dongbao Jia, Wenjun Ruan, Rui Ma, Shiwei Zhao, Yichen Wang, Wei Xu, Weijie Zhou, Xinxin Ge, Zhongxun Xu

“…However, accurately forecasting PM2.5 levels presents significant challenges due to the complex, non-linear, and non-stationary characteristics inherent in the PM2.5 concentration data, which are influenced by diverse meteorological conditions, emission sources, and atmospheric transport dynamics. Existing prediction methods often struggle to adequately capture these multifaceted patterns simultaneously; single models may fail to address both long-term trends and seasonal variations as well as short-term stochastic fluctuations, while many hybrid decomposition approaches may not optimally utilize techniques suited to the distinct nature of each decomposed component, thereby limiting potential accuracy improvements. …”
