Description
Summary:This work aims to develop a robust machine learning model for the prediction of the relative viscosity of nanoparticles (NPs) including Al2O3, TiO2, SiO2, CuO, SiC, and Ag based on the most important input parameters affecting them covering the size, concentration, thickness of the interfacial layer, and intensive properties of NPs. In order to develop a comprehensive artificial intelligence model in this study, sixty-nine data samples were collected. To this end, the Gaussian process regression approach with four basic function kernels (Matern, squared exponential, exponential, and rational quadratic) was exploited. It was found that Matern outperformed other models with R2 = 0.987, MARE (%) = 6.048, RMSE = 0.0577, and STD = 0.0574. This precise yet simple model can be a good alternative to the complex thermodynamic, mathematical-analytical models of the past.
