Implementing QSPR modeling via multiple linear regression analysis to operations research: a study toward nanotubes

Chemical graph theory significantly predicts multifarious physio-chemical properties of complex and multidimensional compounds when investigated through topological descriptors and QSPR modeling. The targeted compounds are widely studied nanotubes attaining exquisite nanostructures due to their distinguishable properties attaining numeric values. The studied nanotubes are carbon , naphthalene , boron nitride , V-phenylene , and titania nanotubes. In this research work, these nanotubes are characterized through their significance level by implementing highly applicable MCDM techniques. TOPSIS, COPRAS, and VIKOR are used to perform a comparative analysis between them through each optimal ranking. The criteria originated from multiple linear regression modeling established between degree-based topological descriptors and the physio-chemical properties of each nanotube.
