A dynamic spatial filtering approach to mitigate underestimation bias in field calibrated low-cost sensor air-pollution data [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Low-cost air pollution sensors, offering hyper-local characterization of pollutant concentrations, are becoming increasingly prevalent in environmental and public health research. However, low-cost air pollution data can be noisy, biased by environmental conditions, and usually need to be field-calibrated by collocating low-cost sensors with reference ...
