Evaluation of Artificial Intelligence Methods to Estimate the Compressive Strength of Geopolymers

TL;DR: In this article , supervised machine learning (SML) techniques, including two individual (decision tree (DT) and gene expression programming (GEP)) and two ensembled (bagging regressor (BR) and random forest (RF)) algorithms were employed to estimate the compressive strength (CS) of GPC.
