Abstract

This article presents a machine learning model for predicting energy consumption in the steel industry, which aids in energy management, cost reduction, environmental regulation compliance, informed decision-making for future energy investments, and contributes to sustainability. The dataset used for the prediction model comprises 11 attributes and 35,040 instances. The CatBoost prediction algorithm was employed for energy consumption prediction, and hyperparameter optimization was performed using GridSearchCV with 5-fold cross-validation. The developed model has undergone a comparative analysis based on both Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) and Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) metrics, demonstrating its promise for accurate energy consumption prediction on both the training and test sets. The proposed model accurately predicts energy consumption for different load types, achieving impressive results on both the training set (RMSE=0.382, R2=0.999, MAPE=1.139) and the test set (RMSE=1.073, R2=0.998, MAPE=1.142). These findings highlight the potential of CatBoost as a valuable tool for energy management and conservation, enabling organizations to make informed decisions, optimize resource allocation, and promote sustainability.

Abstract

In today’s digital environment, online reviews have become one of the key factors that influence the decisions of customers. This is especially true in areas such as e-commerce, travel and the hospitality industry, where buyers depend heavily on the shared experiences of others before making a choice. At the same time, the growing issue of fake or fabricated reviews has raised serious concerns, as it reduces the reliability of online platforms and creates confusion for consumers. Detecting such misleading reviews is not an easy task, since the language used in them is often very close to what is seen in genuine opinions. In the present work, an attempt has been made to compare the performance of traditional machine learning techniques with that of transformer-based deep learning models for the identification of fake reviews. As part of the baseline, Logistic Regression and Linear SVM were applied with TF-IDF features. On the other hand, advanced architectures like BERT, RoBERTa and XLNet were fine-tuned on the Deceptive Opinion Spam Corpus. The results clearly indicated that the classical models gave accuracies in the range of mid-80 percent, whereas the transformer-based models performed much better, crossing or coming close to 90 percent. Among the transformer models, RoBERTa showed the most balanced performance across precision and recall, XLNet gave the highest recall, which is very important when sensitivity is the main concern, while BERT achieved competitive results with less demand on computing resources.
