Abstract
Accurate prediction of surrounding rock grades holds great significance to tunnel construction. This paper proposed an intelligent classification method for surrounding rock based on one-dimensional convolutional neural networks (1D CNNs). Six indicators collected in some tunnel construction sites are considered, and the degree of linear correlation between these indicators has been analyzed. The improved one-hot encoding method is put forward for transforming these non-image indicators into one-dimensional structural data and avoiding the sampling error in the indicators of surrounding rock collected in the field. We found that the 1D CNNs model based on the improved one-hot encoding method can best extract the features of surrounding rock classification indicators (in terms of both accuracy and efficiency). We applied the well-trained classification model of tunnel surrounding rock to a series of expressway tunnels in China, and the results show that our model could accurately predict the surrounding rock grade and has great application value in the construction of tunnel engineering. It provides a new research idea for the prediction of surrounding rock grades in tunnel engineering.
