The subgrade layer’s stability considerably influences the long-term performance of pavement systems. This study investigates influence lime as a traditional stabiliser and activated carbon with coir fibre (ACF) waste materials an environmentally friendly binder to stabilise lateritic soil. Experiments, including one-dimensional consolidation unconfined compressive strength (UCS) tests, have be...

Dimension reduction for regression (DRR) deals with the problem of finding for high-dimensional data such low-dimensional representations, which preserve the ability to predict a target variable. We propose doing DRR using a neural network with a low-dimensional "bottleneck" layer. While the network is trained for regression, the bottleneck learns a low-dimensional representation for the data. ...
