Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
This study presents the application of popular machine learning algorithms in prediction of the shear resistance of steel channel sections using experimental and numerical data. Datasets of 108 results of stainless steel lipped channel sections and 238 results of carbon steel LiteSteel sections were gathered to train machine learning models including support vector regression (SVR), multi-layer perceptron (MLP), gradient boosting regressor (GBR), and extreme gradient boosting (XGB). The cross-validation with 10 folds has been conducted in the training process to avoid over-fitting. The optimal hyperparameter combinations for each machine learning model were found during the hyperparameter tuning process and four performance indicators were used to evaluate the performance of the trained models. The comparison results suggest that all four implemented machine learning models reliably predict the shear capacity of both stainless steel lipped channel sections and carbon steel LiteSteel sections while the implemented SVR algorithm is found to be the best performing model. Moreover, it is shown that the implemented machine learning models exceed the prediction accuracy of the available design equations in estimating the shear capacity of steel channel sections.
