Introduction

PT

1

Ionic liquids (ILs) are compounds composed of large cation and anion parts which are

RI

liquid salts at temperatures below 100 oC because at these temperatures their ions fail to pack

SC

appropriately. ILs have different characteristics from common salts which normally have melting

NU

points higher than 100 oC [1-10].

ILs are interesting compounds which are applied in various applications including

MA

batteries, solar cells, solvents, thermal fluids, etc. This diverse application of ILs is because their structure is tunable. In another word, it is possible to alter the type, branching and lengths of

D

anion and cation parts in an IL to achieve a desired property [11]. ILs possess various unique

AC CE P

viscosity, etc [12].

TE

characteristics such as nearly low volatility, relative high thermal and chemical stability, tunable

Because of the increase in the applications of ILs in industrial processes, a significant number of publications that theoretically and experimentally have focused on evaluation and prediction of physicochemical properties of ILs and the possibility of their use in various applications can be found in literature [6, 13-25]. One of the most important properties of ILs is their heat capacity which is required to determine the heat transfer in industrial design units including reactors and heat exchangers [26]. Literature review shows that there are few reports concerning prediction of heat capacity for ILs [26-33]. Preiss et al. [28] proposed a two parameter model for estimation of heat capacity of ILs based on relation between molar volume and heat capacity. However, the dependency of heat capacity to temperature was not considered in their model.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT Gardas and Coutinho [27] predicted heat capacity of ILs by focusing on the concept of second order group additivity. They used a number of 2400 data from 19 ILs. However, their

PT

databank was gathered from few citations which bring limitations in generalization ability of

RI

their model.

Soriano et al. [29] predicted the heat capacity of 32 ILs using 3149 data points. They

SC

utilized a similar approach to the work done by Gardas and Coutinho [27]. However, their model

NU

presents inefficient results for estimation of heat capacity of ILs which their cation or anion groups were not considered in their data set for example ammonium-based ILs.

MA

Farahani et al. [26] also developed a temperature dependent five parameter model for prediction of heat capacity of ILs. In addition to temperature, they used four structural related

TE

D

parameters for development of their model. The average absolute relative deviation of their predictions was 2.5%. Sattari et al. [34, 35] published two different works for prediction of heat

AC CE P

capacity of ILs using 3726 data from 82 ILs. In their first work, they used the combination of group contribution method and genetic function approximation and they obtained an average relative deviation of 1.68%. In the second work they used the concept of quantitative structure– property relationship (QSPR) for prediction of heat capacity of ILs. Recently, Ahmadi et al. [32] also proposed a 12 parameter correlation for prediction of heat capacity of ILs. The input parameters of their correlation were temperature, molecular weight of IL and several structural related parameters. Their correlation predicted the experimental data with an average absolute relative deviation of 5.8%. Nancarrow et al. [36] used two group contribution methods called Meccano and Lego approaches for prediction of heat capacity of ILs. They utilized 2396 experimental data from 19 ILs for development of the models. They concluded that although the Meccano approach provided better predictions, the

4

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT applicability domain of Lego approach is higher than Meccano method. The experimental data utilized in this work covers a limited number of 19 ILs. Moreover, the use of their methods

PT

requires determination of various structural related parameters for each IL which restricts the

RI

applicability of these models and makes the computational process a difficult task. In addition, the use of Lego method for prediction of heat capacity requires prediction of critical temperature

SC

of IL by another group contribution method. This also brings uncertainty for this approach

NU

because it is reported that different methods such as group contribution methods for prediction of critical temperature of ILs are not able to provide reliable predictions [37].

MA

Zhao et al. [33] developed two models for prediction of heat capacity of ILs named multiple linear regression (MLR) and extreme learning machine (ELM) methods. The input

TE

D

parameters of these models were temperature, molecular weight of ionic liquid and several molecular descriptors based on quantum-chemical based charge distribution area ( S  profile ) of

AC CE P

ILs. They used 2416 experimental data from 46 ILs. They concluded that although both models provided acceptable predictions; the ELM method was superior to MLR method and presented more accurate predictions.

Albert and Müller [38] utilized first order group contributions to describe the structure of ions. They utilized 2419 experimental data from 106 ILs for development of their models. They separated their data points into two subsets for data fitting and testing to evaluate the performance of their method. Their model provided a mean absolute error of 5.4% for test data. The fact that their model is an ion contribution model brings applicability limitations for this model. In another word, this model is limited to those particular ILs that the groups have been predetermined.

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT This work focuses on prediction of heat capacity of ILs using two soft computing approaches named radial basis function neural network (RBF-NN) and multilayer perceptron

observed that developed models present more accurate results.

MA

ANNs are simple and accurate modeling tools which their concept was inspired from human brain functionality. Their structure composes of specific processing units called neurons

TE

D

which are arranged in layers and work in parallel. ANNs exhibit unique characteristics such as capability for processing large data sets, fast modeling process, capability to recognize the

AC CE P

existing patterns between input and output data and good generalization ability [39-41]. There are basically two types of ANNs named Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBF-NNs) and Multilayer Perceptron Neural Networks (MLP-NNs) which are described here briefly.

2.1

Radial Basis Function Neural Networks (RBF-NNs) One of the most useful types of ANNs is radial basis function neural networks (RBF-NNs).

These networks have three layers including a fixed hidden layer and one input and one output layer [40, 42-44]. Every neuron in the hidden layer holds a radial activation function [42]. During training process of a RBF-NN model first, it is required to evaluate the weight terms. Next, the training data is used to train the model by optimizing the structural related parameters of network. Usually a cost function such as average absolute relative deviation (AARD%) or 6

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT mean square error (MSE) between model outputs and actual data is utilized as an indication for training the model [45]. After training the structure of model the next step is to evaluate the

PT

performance of model in prediction of unseen data or test data [46]. The main characteristics of

RI

RBF-NNs are as follows [43, 45, 47, 48]:

SC

1. The network training composes of two steps: initially the weights from input to hidden layer, and then weights from hidden to output layer.

NU

2. The Gaussian type activation functions are usually decided for neurons in hidden layer.

MA

3. They have significant interpolation ability toward nonlinear functions. 4. They exhibit faster learning and training process compared to other ANN algorithms.

D

In modeling with RBF-NNs, the purpose is to determine a function f(x) such

TE

that f (Xp )  t p  1,..., D in which t is the target vector, D is the number of input parameters

AC CE P

and Xp is the

p-th input vector. For this respect, it is needed to map each one of D-dimensional input

X p  [X ip :1,2,..., N ] onto the output t . The RBF-NN uses N basic functions (radial activation functions). The input of these functions is the Euclidian distance between each input parameter and its center denoted by ( x  x p ) where  is the activation function. The x  x p term is the Euclidian

distance.

In

addition,

the

output

has

the

general

form

of:

N

f (x)  w p( x  x p ) . Hence the final formulation for output of a RBF-NN can be expressed p 1

as: f (xq ) 

defining: t  {t p}, w  {wp} , and   {pq  ( x q  x p )} as the output, weight and activation

7

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT function matrixes. Hence, the matrix form of aforementioned equation is expressed as  w  t and matrix inversion techniques can be performed to give w   1 t .

PT

Thus far, various empirical and theoretical methods have been utilized to show the

independency of some qualities of interpolating function to the accurate form of main

Similar to RBF-NNs, these networks also compose of three layers. However, the hidden layer of MLP-NNs is not single and it is possible to define several numbers of hidden layers for these networks. The neurons which are located in hidden layers are linked to each other with different weight terms. These weight terms indicate the relative impact of output of neuron on the total output of MLP-NN. Each neuron accepts its corresponding input vector and multiplies it with a weight vector and sums the result with a bias term. Then, it applies a transfer function on the resultant. The output of a hidden neuron in MLP-NN can be formulated as follows [49]:

N  Y i  f  w ij x i  bi   j 1 

(2)

In which Yi is the output of i-th neuron, f is the transfer function, wij is the j-th weight term of i-th neuron, N is the number of data points, xi is the input of i-th neuron and bi is the bias term 8

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT of i-th neuron. The output of a neuron will be the input signal for next neuron in the following layer. There are various types of transfer functions which can be utilized in hidden neurons of

PT

MLP-NN; however, the purelin, hyperbolic tangent sigmoid (tansig) and logarithm sigmoid

RI

(logsig) are three popular types which are widely used by researchers. The purelin type transfer function is usually used for output layer, while tansig and logsig transfer functions are frequently

Where Si is the sum of weighted inputs and the bias term of i-th neuron which is

The weight terms are internal adjustable parameters of MLP-NNs. These weight terms should be optimized by a proper algorithm to provide a more accurate performance for developed model. The process of determining the optimum weight terms for these networks is called the training of network. A cost function such as AARD% or MSE is utilized to determine the performance of network during training process. The optimum weight terms are those in which minimize this cost function. The back propagation (BP) algorithms are utilized to determine the optimum weight values in these networks. There are different types of BP algorithms such as Levenberg-Marquardt (LM), Scaled Conjugate Gradient (SCG), Resilient Back Propagation (RBP), etc [49]. However, the LM method is most popular among other

3.2.1 RBF-NN model In this work the Matlab® 2014a environment was used to model the heat capacity values

RI

with RBF-NN model. First, two subsets of train and test data were used. The initial structure of

SC

RBF model was constructed by using the train data. The test data was implemented to evaluate

NU

the performance and reliability of model in estimation of unseen data. About 80% of data were used for training phase and the remaining 20% was utilized for testing phase. The performance

MA

and accuracy of RBF model is significantly affected by two tuning parameters which are in its structure. These parameters are named maximum number of neurons (MNN) and spread

D

respectively. As a result, evaluating the optimum values of these parameters will provide a more

TE

accurate and reliable performance for implemented model. The trial and error approach was used

AC CE P

in this work to evaluate the optimum parameters of spread and MNN. Consequently, the values of MNN and spread were changed and the performance of model for prediction of target heat capacity data was examined. The performance of model was evaluated by recording the overall average absolute relative deviation (AARD%) value between model estimations and target data as a cost function. The AARD% value is defined by following formula:

AARD% 

100 N (Cp, P red (i)  Cp, Exp(i)) N  Cp, Exp(i) i1

(7)

Where Cp,Pred is predicted heat capacity and Cp,Exp is actual heat capacity. The optimum values are those which provide the minimum AARD% value for implemented model. Table 2 presents some of the trial and error iterations conducted for evaluating the best values of spread and MNN. According to this table the optimum values which provide most accurate performance for RBF model are 45 and 200 for spread and MNN, respectively. 11

3.2.2 MLP-NN model For development of MLP-NN model 80% of data were also utilized for train set and 20%

RI

of data was used for test set. As mentioned earlier, it is possible to define several numbers of

SC

hidden layers for a MLP-NN model; however, according to literature works [50, 51] using one

NU

hidden layer is sufficient to accurately model a nonlinear data modeling process. In present work, in addition to networks with one hidden layer, the performance of different networks with two

MA

and three hidden layers was also examined. However, it was observed that accuracy of estimations of these networks was not significantly different from networks with one hidden

D

layer. Moreover, in most situations the accuracy of networks with one hidden layer was better

TE

than two and three hidden layer networks. Hence, in order to develop a simple model, the

AC CE P

performance of different networks with one hidden layer was examined by using the overall AARD% of their predictions. In all networks the transfer function of output layer was purelin and the transfer function of hidden layer was tansig. As mentioned before, the LM algorithm was used to train the structure of networks. Figure shows the change in total AARD% of different networks with different numbers of neurons in hidden layer. According to this figure the network with 12 neurons in hidden layer exhibits the lowest AARD% value and is the best network structure for prediction of experimental heat capacity values.

Accuracy of the proposed model and validation In order to examine the accuracy of outcomes of developed models for estimation of actual

and are presented in Table 3. The formulation of these parameters is as below:

Table 3 indicates that the RBF-NN model has a low AARD% value of 0.828 for total data which reveals that the model is able to estimate the target data with lowest possible error. Furthermore, the overall R2 value of 0.9931 indicates the accuracy and effectiveness of model in reproduction of target data. In addition, the R2 and AARD% values of MLP-NN model are 0.9919 and 1.042 respectively. This indicates that the RBF-NN model provides better predictions compared to MLP-NN model. Figure

depicts the cross plot of data points which is the

comparison between estimated data by proposed models and actual data. It is clear from this figure that in the case of both models, the distributions of data points construct a unit slope line which indicates that the outcomes of proposed models and target values are in acceptable agreement. The relative error distribution plot of estimations of proposed models versus

13

ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT experimental data is shown in Figure . According to this figure, a significant concentration of data points near the line with zero relative error for both models indicates that these models

PT

could estimate the total set of target data with an acceptable error. The maximum deviation of estimations of RBF-NN model is no more than 23% and most of data points fall in the area

RI

between relative deviations of  5%. The relative errors of MLP-NN model also are mostly

SC

concentrated in region with relative deviations between  10%. In the case of eliminating a data

point with an absolute relative error of 59%, the maximum relative error of MLP-NN model is no more than 20%. This also indicates that the MLP-NN model exhibits predictions with

reasonable relative errors; however, the accuracy and reliability of RFB-NN model is higher than MLP-NN model. Figure shows the trend plot of experimental and estimated values plotted

versus the index of data points. According to this figure the predictions of both models are appropriately follow the trend of experimental data which indicates acceptable accuracy of

implemented models.

At this point the predictions of RBF-NN and MLP-NN models will be compared with two recently developed literature correlations for prediction of heat capacity of ILs. These correlations were proposed by Farahani et al. [26] and Ahmadi et al. [32]. The details of these correlations including their input parameters and constant coefficients are represented in Appendix A. The statistical parameters of these correlations are listed in Table 4. Figure also shows the graphical comparison between statistical parameters of proposed models and literature correlations. It is evident that the RBF-NN and MLP-NN models are superior to two other correlations and provide better estimations thank to higher R2 and lower values of AARD%, RMSE and STD. Figure

also shows the cumulative frequency of developed models and

literature correlations against their absolute relative errors. This figure indicates that the RBF-

In this work, two models namely RBF-NN and MLP-NN were developed for prediction of

MA

heat capacity of ILs. An extensive database including 2940 data points from 56 ILs was used to develop a general model. The tuning parameters of developed models were determined by trial

statistical and graphical methods. Results showed that the RBF-NN model presents accurate

predictions compared to MLP-NN model with an overall AARD% and R2 of 0.828 and 0.9931. The predictions of developed models were also compared with two literature correlations and it was concluded that the developed models present more accurate and reliable results. As the developed models exhibit acceptable generality, results of these models can be used in situations in which rapid and accurate prediction of heat capacity of ILs is required.
