Abstract
- This study compared three forecasting methods based on their accuracy or absolute errors in forecasting air pollution in a traffic tunnel: the Grey model (GM), the Crank-Nicholson implicit scheme model, and the forecasting combination model (FCM). Three criteria, root mean square error (RMSE), the mean absolute error (MAE) and mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), were applied to the models and the FCM model displayed all of the characteristics of a good forecasting model. The correlation coefficient ( r) for the FCM model equaled 0.94 (Upwind), 0.98 (Middle) and 0.98 (Downwind). This study indicated that FCM can be used to accurately forecast CO pollution in the Kaohsiung Cross Harbor Tunnel. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
