New lightweight model improves low-cost indoor air quality sensor calibration

Researchers have developed a lightweight temporal model for calibrating low-cost indoor air quality sensors, addressing limitations of traditional methods. The model utilizes a six-month dataset collected from five locations, incorporating contextual metadata and measurements from both low-cost and reference sensors. Experiments demonstrate strong calibration performance across various scenarios, including spatial generalization and robustness to gradual and abrupt distribution shifts, all while maintaining a low edge-inference cost.

    Low-Cost Sensor Calibration for Indoor Air Quality Monitoring: A Dataset, Evaluation Scenarios, and a Lightweight Model

    arXiv:2610.11236v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Low-cost sensors enable scalable indoor air quality monitoring but require calibration because of nonlinear distortions, noise, and temporal drift. The conventional strict pairwise calibration setting requires a co-located reference…
