Evaluation Circular Failure of Soil Slopes Using Classification and Predictive Gene Expression Programming Schemes

This article presents an analysis of a dataset related to slope stability circular failure cases using the GeneXproTools program. Two models were developed: The first model was utilized to find a classification model that shows the stability status (S), and the second model was utilized to estimate the factor of safety and predict the mathematical model to serve as an indicator of slope stability. The proposed models include cohesion, unit weight, slope angle, coefficient of pore water pressure, internal friction angle, slope height, internal friction angle, and safety factor. The results showed that the values of accuracy and error were 93.1 and 6.9%, respectively, for classification model 1. The relationship between the actual values of the factor of safety and the output of model 2 was an R2 value of 0.96. The models developed were subjected to sensitivity analysis to determine the input variables’ impact on output for the two models. The selected slope locations with different material characterizations were introduced into geox5 software, and the results were compared to those of the two developed models. Furthermore, when the proposed models were compared to the available models in the literature, the results showed that the proposed models in this study performed better than the available models.
