    Machine Learning-Based Uniaxial Compressive Strength Estimation for Lignite in an Underground Coal Mine
    (Springer, 2026) Mesutoglu, Mehmet; Mesutoglu, Ozgul Cimen; Solak, Ahmet; Ozsen, Hakan; Rodriguez-Dono, Alfonso; Ozkan, Ihsan
    Uniaxial compressive strength (UCS) is one of the most fundamental parameters used in rock mechanics and mining design; however, laboratory UCS testing is often time-consuming, costly, and impractical for continuous field applications. This study aims to develop a rapid and low-cost UCS estimation framework using two easily obtainable indices: Schmidt hammer rebound hardness (SHT) and point load strength (PLT). A total of 114 coal samples collected from the A1 panel of the & Ouml;merler Mine were used to train and evaluate four machine-learning models; multiple linear regression (MLR), regression trees (RT), support vector regression (SVR with linear, polynomial, and RBF kernels), and artificial neural networks (ANN). Model performances were assessed through 5-fold cross-validation and statistically compared using the Friedman and Nemenyi tests. The ANN model achieved the highest predictive accuracy, with an R-2 value exceeding 0.85 and the lowest error metrics among all evaluated algorithms. SVR models also produced competitive results. Statistical rank comparisons confirmed the significant superiority of the ANN model over the RT method. The findings demonstrate that reliable UCS prediction can be achieved using only SHT and PLT, offering a practical and cost-effective alternative for preliminary geotechnical characterization in mining operations. The proposed framework provides field engineers with a fast decision-support tool for strength estimation when laboratory testing is limited or unavailable.

    Predictive Modeling of MB Adsorption on Activated Olive Stone Through Artificial Neural Networks
    (Nature Portfolio, 2025-07-11) Mesutoglu, Ozgul Cimen; Çimen Mesutoğlu, Özgül
    The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of activated olive stone (AOS), an organic waste material, for adsorbing Methylene Blue (MB) dye from aqueous solutions and to develop a predictive model using Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs). This research aimed to explore AOS as an eco-friendly and cost-effective adsorbent for wastewater treatment, emphasizing its potential for large-scale applications. Additionally, the study sought to enhance the understanding of how various factors-such as pH, contact time, and adsorbent dosage-affect the adsorption process and to optimize the conditions for maximum dye removal efficiency. The material's structure and functional groups were analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. Adsorption experiments conducted in a batch system demonstrated a removal efficiency of 93% under optimal conditions, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 446 mg/g for MB. The optimal conditions were identified as pH 7, a contact time of 30 min, 10 g/L of AOS, and an MB concentration of 250 mg/L. To better understand the influence of various parameters on MB adsorption, an ANN model was developed. The model analysis revealed a strong correlation coefficient (R2) of 91%, indicating that the model could reliably predict MB removal. Overall, the study highlights the promising potential of AOS as an adsorbent for wastewater treatment and demonstrates the effectiveness of ANN models for optimizing adsorption processes.
