Intelligent Transportation Systems and NO2 Emissions: Predictive Modeling Approach Using Artificial Neural Networks

Abstract

Environmental or air-quality effects of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) are very difficult to measure. Some researchers have attempted to quantify the effects of individual ITS application on emissions; yet, the effects of ITS as a whole on ambient air-quality have not been investigated. This paper shows how to model the relationship between ITS and ambient airquality. The multiple artificial neural networks (ANN) training with the data yielded a model for predicting the
