A machine learning framework for short-term prediction of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease exacerbations using personal air quality monitors and lifestyle data by M. Atzeni, G. Cappon, J. K. Quint, F. Kelly, B. Barratt, M. Vettoretti

“…Literature predictive models for COPD exacerbations, while promising, may be constrained by their reliance on fixed air quality sensor data that may not fully capture individuals’ dynamic exposure to air pollution. To address this, we designed a machine learning (ML) framework that leverages data from personal air quality monitors, health records, lifestyle, and living condition information to build models that perform short-term prediction of COPD exacerbations. …”
