Two data-driven approaches based on the Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) data are presented in this work to predict crude oil properties. The first approach is the combination of the principal component analysis (PCA) and the support vector regression (SVR), namely PCA-SVR. In the PCA-SVR, the PCA is employed to extract the high-dimension FTIR data to obtain lower-dimensional data. The lower-dimensional data is utilized as the inputs of the SVR to predict crude oil properties. The second approach is a hybrid model composed of the autoencoder and the SVR, namely Auto-SVR. In the Auto-SVR, the autoencoder is exploited to learn new representations for the dimensionality reduction of the FTIR data. The learned lower-dimensional representations are input into the SVR to predict crude oil properties. The presented data-driven approaches are used to predict fractions of light virgin naphtha (LVN), heavy virgin naphtha (HVN), kerosene (Kero), distillate, vacuum gas oil (VGO), and residual in crude oil. According to the obtained results, the presented methods can achieve accurate predictions with satisfactory prediction accuracy. |
