In this study, the specific capacitance characteristics of a carbon nanotube (CNT) supercapacitor was predicted using different machine learning algorithms, such as artificial neural network (ANN), random forest regression (RFR), -nearest neighbors regression (KNN), and decision tree regression (DTR), based on experimental studies. The results of the simulation verified the accuracy of the ANN algorithm with respect to the data derived from the specific capacitance of the supercapacitor module. It was observed that there was a strong correlation between the experimental results and the predictions made by the ANN algorithm. Comparative analysis showed that the developed ANN algorithm was consistently superior over other algorithms in terms of different metrics, as indicated by the lowest root mean square error (RMSE) value of roughly 26.24 and the highest value of approximately 0.91. In contrast, the DTR model recorded the least reliable results in the accuracy analysis, as indicated by the highest RMSE value of about 53.46 and the lowest value of roughly 0.63. To further explore the impact of independent input parameters including pore structure, specific surface area, and / ratio on a single output parameter (particularly, the specific capacitance) the sensitivity analysis was also conducted using the SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) framework. This investigation sheds light on the relative significance and effects of different input variables on the specific capacitance of supercapacitors based on CNTs. The results indicated that the ANN algorithm accurately predicted the capacitance of the CNT-based supercapacitor, demonstrating the feasibility and significance of neural network algorithms in the design of energy storage devices.
在本研究中,基于实验研究,使用不同的机器学习算法,如人工神经网络(ANN)、随机森林回归(RFR)、K近邻回归(KNN)和决策树回归(DTR),对碳纳米管(CNT)超级电容器的比电容特性进行了预测。模拟结果验证了ANN算法对于超级电容器模块比电容数据的准确性。观察到实验结果与ANN算法的预测之间存在很强的相关性。比较分析表明,所开发的ANN算法在不同指标方面始终优于其他算法,其均方根误差(RMSE)值约为26.24,是最低的,而决定系数(R²)值约为0.91,是最高的。相比之下,DTR模型在准确性分析中记录的结果最不可靠,其RMSE值约为53.46,是最高的,而R²值约为0.63,是最低的。为了进一步探究包括孔隙结构、比表面积和碳/氮比在内的独立输入参数对单个输出参数(特别是比电容)的影响,还使用SHapley Additive exPlanations(SHAP)框架进行了敏感性分析。该研究揭示了不同输入变量对基于碳纳米管的超级电容器比电容的相对重要性和影响。结果表明,ANN算法准确地预测了基于碳纳米管的超级电容器的电容,证明了神经网络算法在储能装置设计中的可行性和重要性。
