Abstract
Continuous cooling transformation (CCT) diagrams can be constructed by empirical methods, which is expensive and time consuming, or by fitting a model to available experimental data. Examples of data-driven models implemented so far include regression models, artificial neural networks, k-Nearest Neighbours and Random Forest. Gradient boosting machine (GBM) has been succesfully used in many machine learning applications, but has not been used before in modelling CCT-diagrams. This article presents a novel way of predicting ferrite start temperatures for low alloyed steels using gradient boosting. First, transformation onset temperatures are predicted over a grid of values with a trained GBM-model after which a physically-based model is fitted to the piecewise constant curve obtained as output from the model. Predictability of the GBM-model is tested with two sets of CCT-diagrams and compared to Random Forest and JMatPro software. GBM outperforms its competitors under all tested model performance metrics: e.g. R² for test data is 0.92, 0.87 and 0.70 for GBM, Random Forest and JMatPro respectively. Output from the GBM-model is used for fitting a physically based model, which enables the estimation of transformation start for any linear or nonlinear cooling path. This can be further converted to Time-Temperature-Transformation (TTT) diagram.
