It shows how to apply modern data science, artificial intelligence and machine learning, causal analytics, mathematical modeling, and risk analysis to better quantify human health risks caused by environmental and occupational exposures to air pollutants. The adverse health effects that are caused by air pollution, and preventable by reducing it, instead of merely being statistically associated with exposure to air pollution (and with other many conditions, from cold weather to low income) have proved to be difficult to quantify with high precision and confidence, largely because correlation is not causation. This book shows how to use recent advances in causal analytics and risk analysis to determine more accurately how reducing exposures affects human health risks. Quantitative Risk Analysis of Air Pollution Health Effects is divided into three parts. Part I focuses mainly on quantitative simulation modelling of biological responses to exposures and resulting health risks. It considers occupational risks from asbestos and crystalline silica as examples, showing how dynamic simulation models can provide insights into more effective policies for protecting worker health. Part II examines limitations of regression models and the potential to instead apply machine learning, causal analysis, and Bayesian network learning methods for more accurate quantitative risk assessment, with applications to occupational risks from inhalation exposures. Finally, Part III examines applications to public health risks from air pollution, especially fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution. The book applies freely available browser analytics software and data sets that allow readers to download data and carry out many of the analyses described, in addition to applying the techniques discussed to their own data. 001432481 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 28, 2021). 001432481 650_0 $$aAir$$xPollution$$xRisk assessment. 001432481 650_0 $$aHealth risk assessment$$xStatistical methods. 001432481 650_0 $$aMedical policy$$xDecision making$$xStatistical methods. 001432481 650_0 $$aQuantitative research$$xData processing. 001432481 650_6 $$aRisques pour la santé$$xÉvaluation$$xMéthodes statistiques. 001432481 650_6 $$aPolitique sanitaire$$xPrise de décision$$xMéthodes statistiques. 001432481 650_6 $$aRecherche quantitative$$xInformatique. 001432481 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001432481 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z3030573575$$z9783030573577$$w(OCoLC)1176318355 001432481 830_0 $$aInternational series in operations research & management science ;$$v299. 001432481 852__ $$bebk 001432481 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-57358-4$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001432481 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1432481$$pGLOBAL_SET 001432481 980__ $$aBIB 001432481 980__ $$aEBOOK 001432481 982__ $$aEbook 001432481 983__ $$aOnline 001432481 994__ $$a92$$bISE
