Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Energy, the environment, and public health, three hot topics in the current society, play strategic roles in global sustainable development. The gradual recovery of the world economy will push up levels of energy consumption, and the unreasonable structure of energy consumption will lead to increasingly prominent problems of high energy consumption and high pollution. Therefore, the whole world must join hands in optimizing the structure of energy consumption, reducing environmental pollution, and improving public health. Some scholars have examined the combined effects of energy, economic growth, and technological developments on the environment and public health. However, most of them resorted to a simple qualitative analysis, failing to theorize the mechanisms of these effects through model constructions and intelligent analyses.
Quantitative analyses rely on mathematical and statistical analyses to determine the quantitative features, relations, and changes in social phenomena. They use a variety of data, including empirical data and survey data, to develop computer algorithms and mathematical models. The ultimate goal of quantitative analysis is to provide researchers with quantifiable statistics and metrics, making their decisions more reliable and reasonable.
With the advent of the artificial intelligence (AI) era, an intelligent quantitative analysis greatly facilitates the analysis of huge amounts of data in a short period of time. Coupled with econometric methods and game theory, an intelligent quantitative analysis can disclose the effects of energy consumption on the environment and public health, and lay the basis for intelligent modeling and an empirical analysis of the internal factors and patterns of these effects.
Therefore, this Special Issue intends to report innovative and practical solutions that will develop the intelligent quantitative analysis of how energy consumption influences the environment and public health. We welcome high-quality, influential, and original papers on the recent advances in the emerging research topics that concern the effects of energy consumption on the environment and public health from the perspective of an intelligent quantitative analysis, as well as their applications in specific domains.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- AI modeling of the effects of energy consumption on the environment and public health;
- Big Data analysis on the effects of energy consumption on environment and public health;
- Disclosing the effects of energy consumption on the environment and public health by combining econometric methods with game theory;
- Evaluating the action mechanisms of energy consumption on the environment and public health;
- Methodological issues and case studies of the effects of energy consumption on the environment and public health;
- Domain-specific applications of the effects of energy consumption on the environment and public health.
