The determination of wt% alumina (wa) and pore volume fraction (pv) in alumina‐based bioceramics is important in ceramic engineering. This article adopts support vector machine (SVM) and relevance vector machine (RVM) for prediction of wa and pv based on SiC. SVM is firmly based on theory of statistical learning. RVM is based on a Bayesian formulation of a linear model with an appropriate prior that results in a sparse representation. The developed SVM and RVM give equations for prediction of wa and pv. This article gives robust models based on SVM and RVM for prediction of wa and pv.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
