Stability risk assessment of slopes using logistic model tree based on updated case histories.

A new logistic model tree (LMT) model is developed to predict slope stability status based on an updated database including 627 slope stability cases with input parameters of unit weight, cohesion, angle of internal friction, slope angle, slope height and pore pressure ratio. The performance of the LMT model was assessed using statistical metrics, including accuracy (Acc), Matthews correlation coefficient (Mcc), area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) and F-score. The analysis of the Acc together with Mcc, AUC and F-score values for the slope stability suggests that the proposed LMT achieved better prediction results (Acc = 85.

Prediction of slope stability using Tree Augmented Naive-Bayes classifier: modeling and performance evaluation.

Predicting slope stability is critical for identifying terrain that is prone to landslides and mitigating the damage caused by landslides. The relationships between factors that determine slope instability are complicated and multi-factorial, so it is sometimes difficult to mathematically characterize slope stability. In this paper, new Tree Augmented Naive-Bayes (TAN) model was developed to predict slope stability subjected to circular failures based on six input factors: cohesion, internal friction angle, pore pressure ratio, slope angle, unit weight, and slope angle.

Probabilistic evaluation of CPT-based seismic soil liquefaction potential: towards the integration of interpretive structural modeling and bayesian belief network.

This paper proposes a probabilistic graphical model that integrates interpretive structural modeling (ISM) and Bayesian belief network (BBN) approaches to predict cone penetration test (CPT)-based soil liquefaction potential. In this study, an ISM approach was employed to identify relationships between influence factors, whereas BBN approach was used to describe the quantitative strength of their relationships using conditional and marginal probabilities. The proposed model combines major causes, such as soil, seismic and site conditions, of seismic soil liquefaction at once.

Supervised Learning Methods for Modeling Concrete Compressive Strength Prediction at High Temperature.

Supervised learning algorithms are a recent trend for the prediction of mechanical properties of concrete. This paper presents AdaBoost, random forest (RF), and decision tree (DT) models for predicting the compressive strength of concrete at high temperature, based on the experimental data of 207 tests. The cement content, water, fine and coarse aggregates, silica fume, nano silica, fly ash, super plasticizer, and temperature were used as inputs for the models' development.
