Article Development and Validation of Regression Model via Machine Learning to Estimate Thermal Conductivity and Heat Flow Using Igneous Rocks from the Dikili-Bergama Geothermal Region, Western Anatolia(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2026) Ayzit, Tolga; Sahin, Onur Gungor; Erol, Selcuk; Baba, AlperThermal conductivity is a fundamental parameter that significantly influences the thermal regime of the lithosphere. It plays a crucial role in a variety of geological applications, including geothermal energy exploration, igneous system assessment, and tectonic modeling. In this study, a machine learning approach is used to predict the thermal conductivity of igneous rocks based on the composition of major oxides. A total of 488 samples from different regions of the world were analyzed. The thermal conductivity values ranged from 1.20 to 3.74 Wm(-1) K-1 and the mean value was 2.61 Wm(-1) K-1. The Random Forest (RF) algorithm was used, resulting in a high coefficient of determination (R-2 = 0.913 for training and R-2 = 0.794 for testing) and a root mean square error (RMSE) of 0.112 and 0.179, respectively. Significance analysis of the traits identified SiO2 (>40 %), Na2O (>15 %) and Al2O3 (>10 %) as the most influential predictors. The study presented results from the Western Anatolia region, where felsic rocks had the highest thermal conductivity (mean = 2.69 Wm(-)(1)K(-)(1)) compared to mafic (mean = 2.34 Wm(-)(1)K(-)(1)) and ultramafic rocks (mean = 2.39 Wm(-)(1)K(-)(1)). In addition, the study evaluated the predictive capabilities of machine learning models for the igneous rocks of the Dikili-Bergama region and compared the results with those of saturated models. Using these data, we calculated heat flow values of up to 400 mWm(-2) under saturated conditions in western Anatolia. These results highlight the value of integrating geochemical data with machine learning to improve geothermal resource exploration and lithospheric modeling.Article Knowledge-Based Training of Learning Architectures Under Input Sensitivity Constraints for Improved Explainability(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2026) Sildir, Hasan; Erturk, Emrullah; Edizer, Deniz Tuna; Deliismail, Ozgun; Durna, Yusuf Muhammed; Hamit, BahtiyarThe traditional machine learning (ML) training problem is unconstrained and lacks an explicit formulation of the underlying driving phenomena. Such a formulation, based solely on experimental data, does not ensure the delivery of qualitative knowledge among variables due to many theoretical issues in the optimization task. This study further tightens Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) training by including input sensitivities as additional constraints and applies to regression and classification tasks based on literature data. In theory, such sensitivity represents the change direction of the target variable per change in measurements from indicators. The resulting nonlinear optimization problem is solved th rough a rigorous solver and includes the sensitivity expressions through algorithmic differentiation. Compared to traditional methods, with an acceptable decrease in the prediction capability, the proposed model delivers more intuitive, explainable, and experimentally verifiable predictions under input variable variations, under robustness to overfitting, while serving robust identification tasks. A classification case study includes a patient-oriented clinical decision support system development based on the impact of cancer-indicating variables. A competitive test prediction accuracy is obtained compared to commonly used algorithms despite 10 % decrease in the training. The regression case is built upon the energy load estimation to account for prominent considerations to obtain desired sensitivity patterns and proposed methodology delivers significant accuracy drop compared to some formulations to address knowledge patterns. The approach delivers a compatible pattern with practitioner expertise and is compared to widely used machine learning algorithms, whose performances are evaluated through common statistics in addition to multi-variable response graphs.Article Comprehensive Analysis and Machine Learning-Based Solutions for Drift Behavior in Ambient Atomic Force Microscope Conditions(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Deveci, D. Gemici; Barandir, T. Karakoyun; Unverdi, O.; Celebi, C.; Temur, L. O.; Atilla, D. C.This study outlines the effectiveness of combining numerical methods, Computer Vision (CV) and Machine Learning (ML) approaches to analyze and predict drift behavior in high-resolution Atomic Force Microscope (AFM) scanning procedures. Using Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models for time series analysis and the Light Gradient Boosting Machine (LightGBM) algorithm for predictive modeling, significant progress was achieved in understanding the dynamic and variable nature of drift and mitigating its impact on scanning. The models demonstrated a robust predictive capability, achieving approximately 94% accuracy in drift predictions. The study emphasizes the nonstationary characteristics of drift and demonstrates how the selection of features directly related to the target variable enhances the efficiency of the model and enables adaptive real-time correction. These findings confirm the predictive strength of the models and highlight the potential for integrating ML predictions with real-time feedback mechanisms to improve the resolution and stability of AFM imaging in both scientific and industrial applications.
