GA–PSO–optimised dual-path attention network for predicting strength of nano/micro-modified alkali-activated concrete
摘要
We present a novel, chemically-aware framework for predicting the compressive strength of nano-/micro-modified alkali-activated concrete subjected to multi-ionic exposure. A comprehensive dataset of 324 unique mixes—varying binder precursor, nano- and micro-additives, aggregates, silicate–hydroxide ratio, superplasticizer dosage, curing temperature, and ionic exposure—is assembled. We engineer a Chemical Aggressivity Index (CAI) to quantify combined chemical effects and propose a Dual-Path Attention Network (DPAN) that processes material and exposure features in parallel. A hybrid Genetic Algorithm–Particle Swarm Optimisation (GA–PSO) simultaneously tunes network hyperparameters and feature weights, yielding an optimised DPAN with
