PSO-ANN uses Particle Swarm Optimization, PCA-SVR uses Principal Component Analysis and Support Vector Regression. Both models were tested on a dataset with corrosion-related features. PSO-ANN performed exceptionally well due to its global optimization and neural network's ability to handle complexity. PCA-SVR was competitive, especially with high-dimensional data, but slightly less accurate for complex issues. This study helps engineers and researchers choose models for better corrosion prediction and pipeline management. © 2023 IEEE. %Z cited By 0; Conference of 2023 IEEE International Conference on Sensors and Nanotechnology, SENNANO 2023 ; Conference Date: 26 September 2023 Through 27 September 2023; Conference Code:195657
