Paper Abstract
The objective of this
study is to estimate the energy dissipation capacity of corroded reinforced
concrete columns using the machine learning-based M5P decision tree method. The
dataset was obtained from full-scale experiments on corroded reinforced
concrete columns conducted by Yalciner and Kumbasaroglu (2020) [1]. In this
experimental program, the cyclic behavior of reinforced concrete columns was
investigated by considering different concrete compressive strengths,
longitudinal reinforcement corrosion levels, stirrup corrosion levels, and
axial load ratios. In this paper, concrete compressive strength, longitudinal
reinforcement corrosion level, and stirrup corrosion level were used as model
inputs; energy dissipation capacity was selected as the target variable. The
modeling process was performed using the M5P algorithm in Weka software, and
model performance was evaluated using a 10-fold cross-validation method. According
to the results, the M5P model divided the dataset into two regions based on a
threshold value of 32.63 MPa for concrete compressive strength. For columns
with concrete compressive strength of 32.63 MPa or lower, the energy
dissipation capacity was predicted as a linear function of concrete compressive
strength; in the higher strength region, the model produced a constant
predicted value. As a result of 10-fold cross-validation, the correlation
coefficient was found to be 0.5045, the mean absolute error 8.4973, and the
root mean square error 10.1181. The results indicate that, although the M5P
model produces interpretable equations, its predictive performance remains at a
moderate-to-low level given the current variables and limited dataset.
