Longer training times pose a significant challenge in Artificial neural networks (ANNs) as it may leads to increasing the computational costs and decreasing the effectiveness of the model. Therefore, it is imperative to reduce training times in ANNs to enhance the computational efficiency. The initialization of the weights between the layers in ANN plays a vital role in reducing training times. Appropriate weight initialization can help the network converge faster during the training by providing an optimum starting point for the network. Therefore, weight initialization techniques are essential for efficient training of ANNs. This paper revisits and implements different popular weight initialization techniques in ANNs and analyzes their impact on training time. Specifically, this paper implements Gaussian-based, Kaming-based, and Xavier-based weight initiation atop a popular DNN-based network. The experiments are conducted by employing a well-known dataset. The results show that the scenario when no weight initiation is applied consumed the highest training time, whereas different weight initiation techniques contribute in reducing the training times for the network.

Recently, discussions on air pollution have escalated due to its harmful impact on human health. More and more often we meet a remarkable interest in air quality monitoring, the society we are living in is increasingly approaching methods of acquiring and installing weather and air quality monitoring stations in different locations, whether we are talking about urban or rural areas. While traditional air quality monitoring systems are slightly outdated and they have limitations in providing real-time data at a reasonable cost, technological advances such as the Internet of Things (IoT) offer promising solutions for efficient monitoring in terms of costs, time and energy consumption. Thus, currently smart cities manage to successfully integrate both hardware and software devices to establish complete air quality monitoring systems. This paper proposes an extensive state-of-the-art and a synthesis on the environmental parameters and the air quality index obtained through certain current methods of air quality *** overcome today’s pollution monitoring systems drawbacks, the air quality index (AQI) was defined according to EU and World Health Organization standards. The AQI was computed based on three different databases in a proposed online application for pollution monitoring and analysis. The calculation method of AQI with existing monitoring systems was compared with current standards AQI for a clear and uniform view of air quality.
