About Hsing Yi Chou
Hsing Yi Chou is an Environmental Specialist at Taiwan’s Ministry of Environment, supporting the development and implementation of Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) policies. Her work focuses on enhancing IAQ in high-traffic public spaces—such as schools, hospitals, and transportation hubs—through the adoption of IoT-based monitoring systems and advanced ventilation and purification technologies. She also contributes to a dual-track framework that combines regulatory requirements with a voluntary labeling program to promote both compliance and innovation. In addition, she facilitates cross-ministerial collaboration to strengthen IAQ standards in educational and childcare facilities, with particular attention to protecting vulnerable populations. Her approach reflects a commitment to evidence-based policymaking and a people-centered vision for healthier indoor environments.

Establishment and Application of Semi-Quantitative Indoor Air Quality Assessment Method
This article uses the AHP framework, combined with the Dalenius-Hodges hierarchical procedure and Neyman allocation method for environmental sampling planning and design, to establish a set of "IAQ assessment techniques" and actually apply them to the assessment of IAQ conditions in office buildings.
Preliminary results show that the establishment and application of "IAQ Assessment Technology" (1) can indeed exert a certain degree of evaluation ability to judge and grasp the initial air quality of the site; (2) compared with the manpower, material resources, and costs required for instrument testing or the complex process of indoor flow field analysis, it is possible to use it as a simple and beneficial preliminary assessment tool for IAQ; and (3) it can further serve as a basis for rationalizing the allocation of testing points during on-site testing.
