• Abstract: The increasing air pollution poses an urgent global concern with far-reaching consequences, such as premature mortality and reduced crop yield, which significantly impact various aspects of our daily lives. Accurate and timely analysis of air pollution is crucial for understanding its underlying mechanisms and implementing necessary precautions to mitigate potential socio-economic losses. Traditional analytical methodologies, such as atmospheric modeling, heavily rely on domain expertise and often make simplified assumptions that may not be applicable to complex air pollution problems. In contrast, Machine Learning (ML) models are able to capture the intrinsic physical and chemical rules by automatically learning from a large amount of historical observational data, showing great promise in various air quality analytical tasks. In this article, we present a comprehensive survey of ML-based air quality analytics, following a roadmap spanning from data acquisition to pre-processing, and encompassing various analytical tasks such as pollution pattern mining, air quality inference, and forecasting. Moreover, we offer a systematic categorization and summary of existing methodologies and applications, while also providing a list of publicly available air quality datasets to ease the research in this direction. Finally, we identify several promising future research directions. This survey can serve as a valuable resource for professionals seeking suitable solutions for their specific challenges and advancing their research at the cutting edge.
