The main effort of this study is to examine the feasibility of four novel machine learning models namely Alternating Model Tree, Random Tree, Least Median Square, and Multi-Layer Perceptron Regressor to estimate the biodiesel purity. Then, the mentioned methods are utilized to identify a relationship between the input and output parameters of the biodiesel system. The parameter response was taken as the essential output of fatty acid methyl ester, while the input parameters opted the oil type, catalyst type, catalyst concentration, reaction temperature, methanol-to-oil ratio, reaction time, frequency as well as amplitude. The predicted results obtained by the tools mentioned supra were evaluated according to several known statistical indices. The obtained results proved that the AMT is the best predictive network.

Appraisal of energy loss reduction in green buildings using large-scale experiments compiled with swarm intelligent solutions

Hossein Moayedi, Hasan Yildizhan, Mohammed Al-Bahrani, Bao Le Van

Summary: The issue of energy efficiency is currently a major concern in global politics. The thermal burden a building faces from outside air is determined by the external environment, particularly the wind speed and outside air temperature. Various factors, including the wall's heat transfer coefficients, coating material, inside and outside temperatures, and external surface temperature, influence the heat load of a building. Through a comprehensive assessment, evaluation, and comparison of two artificial approaches (BSA and COA) used for predicting heat loss in green buildings, the study identifies the optimal method based on R-2 and RMSE criteria. Results show that COA predicts energy loss more accurately, with higher R-2 values and lower RMSE values compared to BSA.
