Predicting Hard Rock Pillar Stability Using GBDT, XGBoost, and LightGBM Algorithms

Predicting pillar stability is a vital task in hard rock mines as pillar instability can cause large-scale collapse hazards. However, it is challenging because the pillar stability is affected by many factors. With the accumulation of pillar stability cases, machine learning (ML) has shown great pot...
