Two pattern recognition neural models, one for prediction of the occurrence of 1 : 1 lanthanide intermetallic compounds with CsClstructure and the other for prediction of congruent or incongruent melting types, were developed. Four regression neural models were also developed for prediction of melting point of these compounds. In order to get rid of overfitting, cross-vahdation method was used for the neural models. And satisfactory results were obtained in all of the neural models in this paper.展开更多

The model,represented by a back-propagation netal network, was trained with a 12 set of published data for divalent rare earth halides and then was used to predict the unknown ones. Also the criterion equations were ptesented to determine the enthalpies of fuSion for divalent rare earth halides using pattern recognition in mis work. The results from the model in ANN and criterion equations are in very good agreement with reference data.展开更多

A neural network model to predict the effects of operational variables on the lanthanum, cerium, yttrium, and neodymium recovery in the leaching of apatite concentrate is presented in this article. The effects of leaching time (10 to 40 min), pulp densities (30% to 50%), acid concentrations (20% to 60%), and agitation rates (100 to 200 r/min), were investigated and optimized on the recovery of REEs in the laboratory at a leaching temperature of 60℃. The obtained data in the laboratory optimization process were used for training and testing the neural network. The feed-forward artificial neural network with a 4-5-5-1 arrangement was capable of estimating the leaching recovery of REEs. The neural network predicted values were in good agreement with the experimental results. The correlations of R=l in training stages, and R=0.971, 0.952, 0.985, and 0.98 in testing stages were a result of Ce, Nd, La, and Y recovery prediction respectively, and these values were usually acceptable. It was shown that the proposed neural network model accurately reproduced all the effects of the operation variables, and could be used in the simulation of a leaching plant for REEs.展开更多

The orthogonal array design (OAD)was applied to set the experiments. An artificial neural network (ANN) approach is employed to predict the thickness values of the obtained chromizing coatings based on the OAD tests results. The results revealed that the built model was reliable, the thickness values of chromizing coatings were well predicted at selected process parameters, and the predicted error lied in rational range.展开更多

The topological indices of twenty asymmetrical phosphone bisazo derivatives of chromotropic acid were calculated. The work shows that QSPR can be used as a novel aid to predict the molar absorptivities of color reactions and in the long term to be helpful tool in color reagent design. Multiple regression analysis and neural network were employed simultaneously in this study. The results demonstrated the feasibility and the effectiveness of the method.展开更多

The recursive relations and analytical expression for calculating the possible flow sheets and processes are derived in multi-component systems based on dichotomy. As an example, the application of the concepts is elucidated in detail in a separation of light rare earths containing La, Ce, Pr and Nd in the HEH(EHP)-HC1 system. The results show that this method is beneficial to summarizing and classifying the flow sheets and processes in rare earth separations, and is essential to the optimization of separation flow sheets. It can also be applied to the separation into group situations and other similar cases, too.展开更多
