Here the authors present an autonomous drone air filtration system that uses a novel algorithm, the gradient ascent ML particle filter (GA/MLPF), to efficiently locate and mitigate outdoor air pollution. They demonstrate that their GA/MLPF algorithm is significantly more efficient than the conventional gradient ascent algorithm, reducing both the time and number of waypoints needed to find the source of pollution.

The authors looked at the development of biodegradable bioplastic and its features compared to PET packaging films. They were able to develop a biodegradable plastic with sodium alginate that dissolved in water and degrade in microbial conditions while also being transparent and flexible similar to current plastic films.

Here, based on the identified importance of physical activity in the development of young children, the authors investigated the effects of socioeconomic factors on the amount of physical activity of government-school children in India. They found significant differences between boys and girls, rural and urban, and children who were encouraged to exercise and those who were not. Overall, they suggest that their findings point to the important role of schools and communities in promoting healthy active lifestyles for developing children.
