Use of neural networks in the identification of pollutant concentration scenarios in the city of Rio de Janeiro

Studies carried out in several countries have reported an association between air pollution and several indicators of morbidity and mortality, even when pollutant concentrations are below standard limits. This work has as geographic place of study the city of Rio de Janeiro,and aims to identify loca...
