Research on GWP Prediction Using Genetic Algorithm and Neural Network
摘要
The study utilized the PM6 method from the Ampac10 software package in conjunction with Codessa 3.3 to calculate 958 descriptors for 275 compounds. Through preprocessing and feature variable screening based on genetic algorithm, 48 significant feature descriptors influencing Global Warming Potential (GWP) were identified. An 85%–15% split was randomly selected for the training and prediction sets, respectively, to establish a QSPR model for GWP using neural network training. The model’s R2 was 0.9142, indicating a correlation coefficient R of 0.9561, which suggests good predictive ability. Additionally, the residual diagram indicates no systematic error in the model establishment process. In conclusion, the combination of the PM6 method in Ampac10, Codessa 3.3 software, genetic algorithm, and neural network training can become a new, simple, and accurate method for predicting GWP.
