description AbstractStrontium titanate is a functional ceramic material with unique optical properties and chemical stability which facilitate its wider applicability as photocatalyst for solving energy crisis as well as environmental challenges, oxide thin film substrate and for manufacturing special oxygen sensors (high temperature) among others. Efficient utilization of strontium titanate as photocatalyst and opto-electronic device requires extension of light harvesting capacity beyond visible region through foreign material incorporation by doping mechanisms which is experimentally demanding and time consuming. This work models band gap of strontium titanate magnetic photocatalyst through extreme learning machine (ELM) using the crystal distortion (as a result of dopant incorporation) and crystallite size as predictors. The developed ELM-based models with sigmoid (Sig) and triangular basis (Tranba) activation function perform excellently better than the existing stepwise regression algorithm (SRA) model in the literature using different performance measuring parameters which include the coefficient of correlation (CC), mean absolute error and root mean square error. In the training developmental stage, the developed Sig-ELM model outperforms the developed Tranba-ELM and the existing SRA (2021) model with performance improvement of 2.96% and 67.37%, respectively, on the basis of CC performance metric, while similar performance improvement was obtained during testing phase of model development using different performance metrics. The superiority in the performance of the present models as compared to the existing model strengthens the potentials of the developed model in adjusting and extending light harvesting ability of strontium titanate semiconductor for various technological and industrial applications.
