Towards TBM Automation: On-The-Fly Characterization and Classification of Ground Conditions Ahead of a TBM Using Data-Driven Approach

Pre-tunneling exploration for rock mass classification is a common practice in tunneling projects. This study proposes a data-driven approach that allows for rock mass classification. Two machine learning (ML) classification models, namely random forest (RF) and extremely randomized tree (ERT), are...
