Abstract

Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) have emerged as a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries due to the natural abundance, low cost, and wide geographic availability of sodium resources. However, their practical implementation is hindered by challenges such as lower energy density, slower ion diffusion, and limited cycle stability. In recent years, machine learning (ML) has been increasingly applied to accelerate the discovery, design, and optimization of SIB materials and systems. This review provides a comprehensive overview of ML applications in sodium-ion battery research, including electrode material discovery, electrolyte optimization, performance prediction, and degradation analysis. Various ML techniques, such as supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and deep learning, are discussed in relation to their roles in materials informatics. Additionally, challenges such as data scarcity, model interpretability, and transferability are critically analyzed. Finally, future perspectives on integrating ML with high-throughput experiments and quantum computing are highlighted to guide next-generation sodium-ion battery research.

Abstract

The rapid advancement of quantum computing poses a significant threat to classical cryptographic systems that rely on the computational hardness of mathematical problems such as integer factorization and discrete logarithm problems. In this context, quantum cryptography has emerged as a promising paradigm for secure communication based on the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics rather than on computational assumptions. This paper presents a comprehensive review of quantum cryptography, with a particular focus on Quantum Key Distribution (QKD), the most mature application. The study discusses the theoretical foundations of quantum security, including superposition, entanglement, and the No-cloning theorem, which collectively enable eavesdropping detection and guarantee information-theoretic security. Furthermore, the review examines major QKD protocols, such as BB84 and E91, as well as their advanced variants designed to address practical vulnerabilities and enhance performance. Recent progress in real-world implementations, including fiber-optic networks, free-space communication, and satellite-based systems such as the Micius satellite, is also analyzed. In addition, the paper highlights critical challenges related to scalability, hardware limitations, and security loopholes arising from imperfect devices. Finally, emerging research directions, including hybrid cryptographic frameworks that integrate quantum and post-quantum approaches, are discussed to provide insights into the future of secure communication. This review aims to provide a structured, up-to-date understanding of quantum cryptography, bridging the gap between theoretical developments and practical implementations, and emphasizing its crucial role in shaping next-generation cybersecurity systems.

Abstract

Investigating potential corrosion inhibitors via empirical research is a labor- and resource-intensive process. In this work, we evaluated various linear and non-linear algorithms as predictive models for corrosion inhibition efficiency (CIE) values using a machine learning (ML) paradigm based on the quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model. In the quinoxaline compound dataset, our analysis showed that the XGBoost model performed the best predictor of other ensemble-based models. The coefficient of determination (R2), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and root mean squared error (RMSE) metrics were used to objectively assess this superiority. To sum up, our study offers a fresh viewpoint on the effectiveness of machine learning algorithms in determining the ability of organic compounds like quinoxaline to suppress corrosion on iron surfaces.

Abstract

Corrosion in materials is a significant concern for the industrial and academic fields because corrosion causes enormous losses in various fields such as the economy, environment, society, industry, security, safety, and others. Currently, material damage control using organic compounds has become a popular field of study. Pyridine and quinoline stand out as corrosion inhibitors among a myriad of organic compounds because they are non-toxic, inexpensive, and effective in a variety of corrosive environments. Experimental investigations in developing various candidate potential inhibitor compounds are time and resource-intensive. In this work, we use a quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR)-based machine learning (ML) approach to investigate support vector machine (SVR), random forest (RF), and k-nearest neighbors (KNN) algorithms as predictive models of inhibition performance. (Inhibition efficiency) corrosion of pyridine-quinoline derivative compounds as corrosion inhibitors on iron. We found that the RF model showed the best predictive ability based on the coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean squared error (RMSE) metrics. Overall, our study provides new insights regarding the ML model in predicting corrosion inhibition on iron surfaces.

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to use quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR)-based machine learning (ML) to examine the corrosion inhibition capabilities of benzimidazole compounds. The primary difficulty in ML development is creating a model with a high degree of precision so that the predictions are correct and pertinent to the material's actual attributes. We assess the comparison between the extra trees regressor (EXT) as an ensemble model and the decision tree regressor (DT) as a basic model. It was discovered that the EXT model had better predictive performance in predicting the corrosion inhibition performance of benzimidazole compounds based on the coefficient of determination (R2) and root mean square error (RMSE) metrics compared DT model. This method provides a fresh viewpoint on the capacity of ML models to forecast potent corrosion inhibitors.

Abstract

Empirical studies of possible compound corrosion inhibitors require a lot of money, time, and resources. Therefore, we used a machine learning (ML) paradigm based on quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) models to evaluate ensemble algorithms as predictors of corrosion inhibition efficiency (CIE) values. Our investigation reveals that the gradient boosting (GB) regressor model outperforms other ensemble-based models. This advantage is evaluated objectively using the metrics root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and coefficient of determination (R2). In summary, our research provides a new perspective on how well machine learning algorithms in particular ensembles work to identify organic molecules such as pyridazine that have the potential to prevent corrosion on the surfaces of metals such as iron and its alloys.

Abstract

This study investigates machine learning-based quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) models for predicting the thermal stability of zinc metal-organic frameworks (Zn-MOF). Utilizing a dataset comprising 151 Zn-MOF compounds with relevant molecular descriptors, ridge (R) and kernel ridge (KR) regression models were developed and evaluated. The results demonstrate that the R model outperforms the KR model in terms of prediction accuracy, with the R model exhibiting exceptional performance (R² = 0.999, RMSE = 0.0022). While achieving high accuracy, opportunities for further improvement exist through hyperparameter optimization and exploration of polynomial functions. This research underscores the potential of ML-based QSPR models in predicting the thermal stability of Zn-MOF compounds and highlights avenues for future investigation to enhance model accuracy and applicability in materials science.
