Predictive Power of Machine Learning for Optimizing Solar Water Heater Performance: The Potential Application of High-Throughput Screening

Figure 5

A proposed framework of machine learning-assisted HTS process for target performance optimization. Independent variables are assigned as “ind.” Dependent variables are assigned as “dep.” {Ain} represents the original experimental database. {Bin} represents the generated independent variables as the inputs. {Bin(new)} represents the generated independent variables and their predicted dependent variables. {Cin} represents the new experimental database combining the original experimental database and the experimental validation results of the screened candidates.
