abstract = "The demand for concrete production has led to a
significant annual requirement for raw materials,
resulting in a substantial amount of waste concrete. In
response, recycled aggregate concrete has emerged as a
promising solution. However, it faces challenges due to
the vulnerability of the hardened mortar attached to
natural aggregates, leading to susceptibility to
cracking and reduced strength. This study focuses on
predicting the split tensile strength of fiber
reinforced recycled aggregate concrete using five
prediction models, including two deep neural network
models DNN1 and DNN2, one optimizable Gaussian process
regression (OGPR), and two genetic programming based
GEP1 and GEP2 models. The models exhibited high
accuracy in predicting spilt tensile strength with
robust R2, RMSE, and MAE values. DNN2 has the highest
R2 value of 0.94 and GEP1 has the lowest R2 value of
0.76. DNN2 model R2 was 3.3percent and 13.5percent
higher than OGPR and GEP2. Similarly, DNN2 and GEP2
model performed 9.3percent and 9.21percent better than
DNN1 and GEP1 respectively in terms of R2. DNN2 model
performed 20.32percent and 31.5percent better than OGPR
and GEP2 in terms of MAE. Similarly, GEP2 and DNN2 MAE
were 13.1percent and 31.5percent better than GEP1 and
DNN1. Sensitivity analysis using the relevance factor
and permutation feature importance revealed that the
most significant positive factors are cement, natural
coarse aggregates, density of recycle aggregates, and
superplasticizer while recycle aggregate concrete, max
size, and water content of recycle aggregates and water
content have the most negative effect on STS values.
The proposed ML methods, especially DNN2 and OGPR can
be effectively used in practical projects, saving time
and cost for eco-friendly fiber reinforced recycled
aggregate concrete mixes. However, it is required to
study more input variables and use hybrid models to
further enhance the accuracy and reliability of the
models",
