چکیده

The behaviour of pulses of Belousov-Zhabotinski (BZ) reaction-diffusion waves can be controlled automatically through machine learning. By extension, a form of chemical network computing, i.e., a massively parallel non-linear computer, can be realised by such an approach. In this initial study a light-sensitive sub-excitable BZ reaction in which a checkerboard image comprising of varying light intensity cells is projected onto the surface of a thin silica gel impregnated with tris(bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) catalyst and indicator is used to make the network. As a catalyst BZ solution is swept past the gel, pulses of wave fragments are injected into the checkerboard grid resulting in rich spatio-temporal behaviour. This behaviour is shown experimentally to be repeatable under the same light projections. A machine learning approach, a learning classifier system, is then shown able to direct the fragments to an arbitrary position through dynamic control of the light intensity within each cell in both simulated and real chemical systems.

Modeling of Chloride Ion Separation by Nanofiltration Using Machine Learning Techniques

In this work, several machine learning techniques are presented for nanofiltration modeling. According to the results, specific errors are defined. The rejection due to Nanofiltration increases with pressure but decreases with increasing the concentration of chloride ion. Methods of machine learning represent the rejection of nanofiltration as a function of concentration, pH, pressure and also ...
