Data-Driven Concrete Quality Optimization in Industry 4.0: Predictive Compressive Strength Modeling Through Machine Learning and Ensemble Approaches Judeson Antony Kovilpillai J, Sulaiman Syed Mohamed, Pragya, Jayanthy S, Viji C, et al. 2024 IEEE International Conference on Information Technology Electronics and Intelligent Communication Systems Iciteics 2024, 2024 As numerous manufacturing enterprises are progressing towards Industry 4.0, advanced predictive models are required to optimize contemporary construction practices. The precise prediction of the compressive strength of cement is crucial, as it is an integral material for any constructional unit. This research paper explores numerous advanced machine learning and ensemble learning techniques for effective concrete strength prediction, enabling proactive quality control measures in an Industry 4.0 based environment. The research utilizes an open-source dataset and employs advanced machine learning techniques to interpret and learn intricate relationships among input features, such as cement quantity, blast furnace slag content, fly ash ratios, water weight, superplasticizer usage, and coarse and fine aggregate proportions, as well as curing age for predictive modeling. Experimental results validate the Histogram-Based Gradient Boosting model as an optimal technique for effectivey forecasting the compressive strength of cement in Newtons per square millimeter (MPa), with a cross-validation R2 Score of 0.922. The findings of this research work contributes to the increasing demand for accurate and scalable predictive models within the quality control unit of an Industry 4.0 based manufacturing firm.
Predicting Steel Fatigue Using Machine Learning Techniques for sustainable Infrastructure Monitoring Sulaiman Syed Mohamed, J Judeson Antony Kovilpillai, R Golda Brunet, Pragya, Mahmood Hussain Mir, et al. IEEE International Conference on Signal Processing and Advance Research in Computing Sparc 2024, 2024 Ensuring the structural integrity of steel infrastructure is crucial for sustainable development. Fatigue damage, a major concern in steel structures, can lead to catastrophic failures. This paper investigates the application of machine learning (ML) techniques for predicting steel fatigue life. The work compares the performance of eight regression models using a publicly available dataset MatNavi from the National Institute for Material Science (NIMS). The model performance is evaluated using three metrics: Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), and R-squared Score. The results show that Gradient Boosting achieves the lowest error metrics, demonstrating superior performance in predicting fatigue life. Random Forest also exhibits high accuracy, suggesting its potential as an alternative method. While Huber Regressor shows higher error values, its potential for handling outliers might be valuable in specific scenarios. This study highlights the effectiveness of machine learning, particularly ensemble methods, for predicting steel fatigue and emphasizes their potential in enhancing sustainable infrastructure management.
