Abstract

Different artificial neural networks architectures have been assayed to predict percolation temperature of AOT/iC8/H2O microemulsions in the presence of n-alkyl acids with a chain length between 0 and 24 carbons, using a multilayer perceptron with five easy-acquired entrance variables (number of carbons, log P, length of the hydrocarbon chain, pKa and acid concentration). The evaluation of the neural networks was carried out by means of RMSE and IDP, resulting that the architecture with better results consists in five input neurons, two middle layers (with five and ten neuron respectively) and one output neuron. Results prove that Artificial Neural Networks are a useful tool elaborating models to predict percolation temperature of microemulsion systems in the presence of additives.

Kurzfassung

Verschiedene künstliche Netzwerkstrukturen wurden untersucht, um die Percolationstemperatur von AOT/iC8/H2O-Mikroemulsionen in Gegenwart von n-Alkylsäuren, deren Kettenlänge zwischen 0 und 24 Kohlenstoffatomen lag, untersucht. Es wurde ein Mehrschichtpreceptron mit fünf einfach zugänglichen Eingangsvariablen (Anzahl der Kohlenstoffatome, Log P, Länge der Kohlenstoffatomkette, pKa und die Säurekonzentration) verwendet. Die Evaluation der neutralen Netzwerke wurde mit Hilfe von RMSE und IDP durchgeführt, was darin resultierte, dass die Strukturen bessere Ergebnisse in den fünf Eingangsvariablen, den zwei Mittelschichten (mit fünf bzw. zehn Neuronen) und einem Ausgangsneuron lieferten. Die Ergebnisse belegen, dass künstliche neurale Netzwerke (ANN) nützlich für die Erarbeitung von Modellen zur Vorhersage der Perkolationstemperatur von Mikroemulsionen in Anwesenheit von Additiven sind.
