Introduction

Air quality is a critical factor affecting public health and the environment. This project leverages machine learning to predict air quality levels based on historical data and environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, pollutant concentrations, and more. The model can be used by researchers, policymakers, and the general public to make informed decisions about air quality management.

Features

  • Data Preprocessing: Clean and preprocess air quality data for accurate predictions.
  • Machine Learning Models: Implement various machine learning algorithms to predict air quality.
  • Visualization: Generate visualizations to understand trends and patterns in air quality data.
  • Scalability: The model can be scaled to incorporate additional features and larger datasets.
