Application of ANFIS hybrids to predict coefficients of curvature and uniformity of treated unsaturated lateritic soil for sustainable earthworks

Unsaturated lateritic soils are complex soils to work with due to moisture effects. So, the determination of its properties requires lots of time, labor and equipment. For this reason, the application of evolutionary learning techniques has been adopted to overcome these complexities. Lateritic soil...
