AQIFormer: A Transformer-Based Multi-View Architecture for Cross-City Air Quality Classification 文章

arXiv:2606.07648v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Air pollution represents one of the most critical environmental and public health challenges globally, with traditional sensor-based monitoring systems facing significant scalability and economic constraints. Image-based air quality estimation has emerged as a promising alternative, leveraging the visual characteristics of atmospheric pollutants in traffic scenes. However, existing methods suffer from limited cross-city generalization and inadequate exploitation of multi-view perspectives. We present AQIFormer, a novel transformer-based ensemble architecture that addresses these fundamental limitations through innovative dual-view integration, weather-aware attention mechanisms, and comprehensive multi-task learning. Our approach uniquely combines front and rear traffic imagery with meteorological parameters to achieve robust air quality classification across diverse urban environments.
