Machine learning models based on molecular descriptors to predict human and environmental toxicological factors in continental freshwater

Peer Community Journal, 2022
It is a real challenge for life cycle assessment practitioners to identify all relevant substances contributing to ecotoxicity. Once this identification has been made, the lack of corresponding ecotoxicity factors can make the results partial and ...

Estimate ecotoxicity characterization factors for chemicals in life cycle assessment using machine learning models

Environment International, 2020
In life cycle assessment, characterization factors are used to convert the amount of the chemicals and other pollutants generated in a product’s life cycle to the standard unit of an impact category, such as ecotoxicity.
