• Abstract: The hydrogen trapping behaviour of metallic alloys is generally characterised using Thermal Desorption Spectroscopy (TDS). However, as an indirect method, extracting key parameters (trap binding energies and densities) remains a significant challenge. To address these limitations, this work introduces a machine learning-based scheme for parameter identification from TDS spectra. A multi-Neural Network (NN) model is developed and trained exclusively on synthetic data to predict trapping parameters directly from experimental data. The model comprises two multi-layer, fully connected, feed-forward NNs trained with backpropagation. The first network (classification model) predicts the number of distinct trap types. The second network (regression model) then predicts the corresponding trap densities and binding energies. The NN architectures, hyperparameters, and data pre-processing were optimised to minimise the amount of training data. The proposed model demonstrated strong predictive capabilities when applied to three tempered martensitic steels of different compositions. The code developed is freely provided.

  We propose a novel framework to understand contrastive self-supervised learning (SSL) methods that employ dual pairs of deep ReLU networks. We prove that in each SGD update of SimCLR with various loss functions, the weights at each layer are updated by a emphcovariance operator. To further study what role the covariance operator plays and which features are learned in such a process, we model data generation and augmentation processes through a emphhierarchical latent tree model (HLTM)
