Estimation of the compressive strength of green concretes containing rice husk ash: a comparison of different machine learning approaches
To mitigate the environmental issues related to the utilisation of ordinary portland cement (OPC) in concrete mixtures, attempts have been carried out to find alternative binders such as rice husk ash (RHA) as replacements for OPC. This study contributes to moving from the traditional laboratory-based methods for the determination of compressive strength (CS) towards machine learning-based approaches by developing three accurate models (i.e. artificial neural network (ANN), multivariate adaptive regression spline (MARS) and M5P model tree) for the estimation of the CS of concretes containing RHA. For this purpose, the models were developed employing 909 data records collected through technical literature. The results indicate that all three techniques provide reliable estimations of the CS for both training and testing datasets. However, the ANN-based model outperforms the other two models, while the MP5-based model is associated with the least accuracy and the maximum error values among all three techniques. The parametric study revealed that by increasing the contents of cement, coarse aggregate and age, and decreasing the contents of water, fine aggregate, RHA and superplasticizer, the CS of concrete increases while the sensitivity analysis demonstrated that the coarse aggregate content was the most influential parameter affecting the values of CS.
