Bayesian Network | Correlation analysis | Exploring the causal relationship between the factors influencing corrosion | Need a certain amount of data to ensure the credibility of the model |
Grey Correlation Analysis | Correlation analysis | Finding the key factors affecting the corrosion mechanism of materials | Does not reflect the general law of material corrosion |
Random Forest | Correlation analysis | Quantify the size of the effect of each corrosion factor on corrosion | Analysis results are limited and do not reflect the general law of material corrosion |
Grey Prediction | Predict | Minimum sample size requirement | Unable to respond to the effect of other factors on corrosion |
Multiple Linear Regression | Predict | Visually describe the effect of each factor on corrosion rate | Limits the use of material corrosion data |
Artificial Neural Network (ANN) | Predict | Better prediction accuracy than multiple linear regression method | Overfitting can occur with small sample sizes |
Support Vector Machine (SVM), Support Vector Regression (SVR) | Predict | Prediction accuracy higher than a rtificial neural network | There is a dependence on the sample size for model building |
Monte Carlo simulation at the macro scale | Predict | Application to service safety assessment of pipeline type engineering facilities | Large demand sample size, unable to adjust inputs and outputs for flexible forecasting |
Markov Chain | Predict | Suitable for mining continuous, time-series data | Weak handling of discrete data |
Random Forest | Predict | Corrosion data suitable for high-speed variation characteristics | High dependence on sample size for model building |
