1.Project Overview:
- Introduction:
- Objectives:
2. Explore and analyze the dataset containing physical and chemical properties of Li-
ion silicate cathodes to identify relevant features for classification.
4. Assess the accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score of the developed models to
determine their effectiveness in predicting battery crystal systems.
5. Visualize decision boundaries and feature importance to gain insights into the
classification process and identify key factors influencing battery crystal systems.
- Theoretical Background:
Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in various applications due to their high energy
density, long cycle life, and lightweight characteristics. These batteries consist of cathode,
anode, electrolyte, and separator components, with the cathode material playing a critical
role in determining battery performance. The crystal structure of the cathode material
significantly influences its electrochemical properties, including capacity, voltage, and
cycling stability.
- Tailor battery designs for specific applications, such as electric vehicles, renewable
energy storage, and portable electronics.
- Enhance the efficiency and reliability of lithium-ion battery systems, leading to
advancements in clean energy technologies.
Addressing this issue through machine learning techniques enables the automated
analysis of large datasets and the identification of complex patterns that may not be
apparent through traditional methods. Ultimately, the project aims to contribute to the
advancement of lithium-ion battery technology and support the transition towards a more
sustainable and energy-efficient future.
4. Data source
Data Characteristics:
- Volume:
The dataset contains information about the physical and chemical properties of
lithiumion silicate cathodes. While the exact number of rows and columns is not specified
in the provided code snippet, we can infer the volume of the data based on the number of
features (attributes) and the potential size of the dataset. Typically, the volume of data in
such datasets can range from a few hundred to several thousand rows, depending on the
number of samples collected and the granularity of the measurements.
- Variety:
- Velocity:
The velocity of data refers to the rate at which new data is generated and made available
for analysis. In the context of this project, the velocity of data may vary depending on the
frequency of data collection and updates to the dataset. For instance, if the dataset is
periodically updated with new experimental data or research findings, the velocity of data
may be relatively high. However, if the dataset is static and not regularly updated, the
velocity of data would be lower.
Overall, the data characteristics of this project exhibit moderate to high volume, moderate
variety, and potentially varying velocity depending on the update frequency of the dataset.
Analyzing and processing such data requires robust machine learning algorithms capable
of handling multidimensional features and accommodating potential changes in data
velocity over time.
5.Description of Data:
- Nature of Data:
The nature of the data can be considered steady-state since the dataset contains
information about the physical and chemical properties of lithium-ion silicate cathodes.
Steady-state data implies that the characteristics and properties of the dataset remain
relatively constant over time, without significant fluctuations or changes in distribution. In
the context of this project, this means that the fundamental properties of lithium-ion
batteries and their crystal systems, as captured by the dataset, are assumed to be
consistent and do not vary drastically between observations.
- Data Preprocessing:
Preprocessing steps are essential to ensure that the data is suitable for analysis and
modeling. Some anticipated preprocessing steps for this project may include:
1. Data Cleaning: Check for and handle missing values, outliers, or errors in the
dataset. Since the provided code snippet includes visualization of missing values using a
heatmap, addressing missing values through imputation or removal is a crucial
preprocessing step.
3. Feature Selection:Identify and select relevant features that have the most
significant impact on predicting the crystal system of lithium-ion batteries. Feature
selection techniques such as correlation analysis, feature importance ranking, or domain
knowledge can guide the selection process.
5. Train-Test Split: Split the dataset into training and testing sets to evaluate model
performance on unseen data. The provided code snippet already includes a train-test split
using the `train_test_split` function from `sklearn.model_selection`.
- Model Selection:
For this project, several machine learning models are suitable for classification tasks
based on the provided dataset. Some of the models we consider are:
1. Logistic Regression: A simple yet effective linear model suitable for binary or
multiclass classification tasks.
4. Support Vector Machines (SVM): Effective for classification tasks with non-linear
decision boundaries, especially when dealing with high-dimensional data.
The rationale behind these choices is to explore a diverse range of algorithms that can
capture different aspects of the data's underlying structure. Since the dataset contains
information about physical and chemical properties, as well as categorical labels for
crystal systems, these algorithms provide flexibility in modeling both linear and non-linear
relationships between features and target variables.
- Training:
We will adopt a standard approach to training machine learning models, which involves
splitting the dataset into training and testing sets using techniques like train-test split or
kfold cross-validation. We'll utilize popular libraries such as scikit-learn in Python to
implement and train the chosen models efficiently. During training, we'll tune
hyperparameters using techniques like grid search or random search to optimize model
performance and prevent overfitting.
- Evaluation and Validation:
- Evaluation Metrics:
- For classification tasks, we will primarily focus on metrics such as accuracy, precision,
recall, and F1-score. These metrics provide insights into the model's overall performance
in correctly classifying lithium-ion batteries into their respective crystal systems. Since
the classes may not be perfectly balanced in the dataset, F1-score, which considers both
precision and recall, is particularly suitable for evaluating model performance in such
scenarios.
- Validation Strategy:
- We will employ a robust validation strategy to ensure the model's generalizability and
robustness. This may involve techniques such as k-fold cross-validation, where the
dataset is split into k subsets, and each subset is used as both training and testing data
iteratively. Additionally, we may perform external validations on unseen datasets, if
available, to further assess the model's performance in real-world scenarios. This
validation strategy helps prevent overfitting and provides confidence in the model's ability
to make accurate predictions on new data.
The values of precision, recall, and f1 score are obtained through a classification report.
Output shows the precision, recall, and f1 score for the Crystal Systems of Li-ion batteries
as well as its accuracy score. The confusion matrix of the prediction is shown which can
be used to solve the precision, recall, f1 score, and accuracy mathematically.
Decision Tree
Decision Tree can be used to represent decisions and decision making visually and
explicitly. The name is taken from the tree-like model of decisions; however, the root is at
the very top. The root is split into two decisions or leaves depending on the condition or
internal node. In general, Decision Tree algorithms are referred to as Classification and
Regression Trees (CART).
Here we used GraphViz and pydotplus to visualize the count of nodes and
maximum depth of the decision tree.
Random Forest
Random Forest is a supervised learning algorithm. The forest the algorithm builds is an
ensemble of decision trees, usually with the bagging method . Bagging is a combination
of learning models that increases the overall result. A random forest builds multiple
decision trees and merges them together to get a more accurate and stable prediction.
It can be used for both classification and regression problems.
