AB - Quantitative structure-property relationships (QSPR) are developed to correlate glass transition temperatures and chemical structure. Both monomer and repeat unit structures are used to build several QSPR models for Parts 1 and 2 of this study, respectively. Models are developed using numerical descriptors, which encode important information about chemical structure (topological, electronic, and geometric). Multiple linear regression analysis (MLRA) and computational neural networks (CNNs) are used to generate the models after descriptor generation. Optimization routines (simulated annealing and genetic algorithm) are utilized to find information-rich subsets of descriptors for prediction. A 10-descriptor CNN model was found to be optimal in predicting T(g) values using the monomer structure (Part 1) for 165 polymers. A committee of 10 CNNs produced a training set rms error of 10.1K (r2 = 0.98) and a prediction set rms error of 21.7 K (r2 = 0.92). An 11-descriptor CNN model was developed for 251 polymers using the repeat unit structure (Part 2). A committee of CNNs produced a training set rms error of 21.1K (r2 = 0.96) and a prediction set rms error of 21.9 K (r2 = 0.96).
