Implementation of Polynomial Functions to Improve the Accuracy of Machine Learning Models in Predicting the Corrosion Inhibition Efficiency of Pyridine-Quinoline Compounds as Corrosion Inhibitors

Abstract

Historically, the exploration of corrosion inhibitor technology has relied extensively on experimental methodologies, which are inherently associated with substantial costs, prolonged durations, and significant resource utilization. However, the emergence of ML approaches has recently garnered attention as a promising avenue for investigating potential materials with corrosion inhibition properties. This study endeavors to enhance the predictive capacity of ML models by leveraging polynomial functions. Specifically, the investigation focuses on assessing the effectiveness of pyridinequinoline compounds in mitigating corrosion. Diverse ML models were systematically evaluated, integrating polynomial functions to augment their predictive capabilities. The integration of polynomial functions notably amplifies the predictive accuracy across all tested models. Notably, the SVR model emerges as the most adept, exhibiting R² of 0.936 and RMSE of 0.093. The outcomes of this inquiry underscore a significant enhancement in predictive accuracy facilitated by the incorporation of polynomial functions within ML models. The proposed SVR model stands out as a robust tool for prognosticating the corrosion inhibition potential of pyridine-quinoline compounds. This pioneering approach contributes invaluable insights into advancing machine learning methodologies geared toward designing and engineering materials with promising corrosion inhibition properties.

Comparison of Ridge and Kernel Ridge Models in Predicting Thermal Stability of Zn-MOF Catalysts

“…Subsequently, the dataset is partitioned into training and testing sets using a k-fold cross-validation strategy. This methodology is selected to mitigate data bias and variability by iteratively training the model until it achieves minimal statistical error [12], [13], [14]. In this context, we opt for k = 10, dividing the test set into one segment while the training set comprises the remaining nine segments.…”

“…The data is divided using the k-fold cross-validation approach as the following preprocessing step. By training the model repeatedly until it finds the lowest possible statistical error, this strategy was chosen to overcome bias and variation in the data [26], [27]. As a result, one fold serves as the test set in this study, while the remaining nine folds serve as the training set (k = 10).…”

“…The dataset containing 41 pyridazine-quinoline compounds evaluated in this study comes from the literature [20], [25], [26]. Various quantum chemical descriptors of the inhibitor compound are used to construct the QSPR model to guide the design of corrosion inhibition.…”

“…In this work, we develop a QSPR-based ML model with a comparative analysis between algorithms to evaluate the corrosion inhibition performance of pyridine-quinoline organic compounds using datasets in the literature [20], [23], [24], [25], [26]. Various DFT-calculated quantum chemical descriptors in the dataset were used to build a statistically validated QSPR model to consider, analyze, and model to guide the design of corrosion inhibition.…”
