Interpretable prediction of uniaxial compressive strength for diverse rock materials: a stacking ensemble approach

Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is critical for geotechnical design, yet conventional testing is costly and empirical formulas fail to adequately capture inherent nonlinearities. This study proposes an interpretable predictive framework that combines a two-stage heterogeneous stacking ensemble with SHapley Additi...
