Abstract
Short term prediction of air pollution is gaining increasing attention in the research community, due to its social and economical impact. In this paper we study the application of a Kernel Adaptive Filtering (KAF) algorithm to the problem of predicting PM10 data in the Italian province of Ancona, and we show how this predictor is able to achieve a significant low error with the inclusion of chemical data correlated with the PM10 such as NO2.
