Advanced machine learning models for predicting unconfined compressive strength from point load strength index of rock samples from Chennai and Bangalore

The rocks’ uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) constitutes the paramount geomechanical parameter, typically assessed in the laboratory under confined or unconfined conditions. This parameter is ...
