2021-06-04 The Air Quality and Particle Technology group at Institute of Environmental Engineering at ETH Zurich is offering a Master project/thesis opportunity with focus on data analysis and machine learning for atmospheric pollutants.
The goal is to build a suitable model to reveal the complex nonlinear relationships between peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) pollution and the influencing factors (including both meteorological factors and other air pollutants) with the potential to publish in top-tier environmental science venues. The results can be used by future studies on air pollutants and for guiding environmental policies. Student(s) will gain hands-on experience in data analysis and machine learning and will get a comprehensive understanding of statistical learning.
