Confined masonry (CM) is becoming a widely adopted construction building method even in earthquake-prone regions due to its economic viability, simplicity, and material availability. However, existing empirical models for predicting lateral cracking loads often fall short varied properties, detailing of confining elements practices. In this study, machine learning (ML) algorithms, such as Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGB), Random Forest (RF), Extremely Randomized Tree (ERT), were employed predict the seismic performance CM walls, focusing on maximum load capacity based an experimental dataset from 84 published studies, with 59 samples training 25 testing. Different material, load, geometrical, reinforcement detailing, related CM, considered. This study also compares equations against proposed ML models. The demonstrated strong predictive capabilities, outperforming both predictions, XGBoost yielding highest accuracy, reflected by R2 values 0.903 0.876 lowest RMSE (28.742 23.982 load). Additionally, comparative analysis shows that while some produce reasonably accurate most exhibit significant deviations results. finally employs Partial Dependence Plot (PDP) explain importance contribution factors influence strength, concludes models, especially XGBoost, are highly effective capturing complex behavior walls under vertical loads, making them valuable tools enhancing accuracy evaluations.

Unreinforced masonry buildings are highly vulnerable to earthquake damage due their limited ability withstand lateral loads, compared other structures. Therefore, a detailed assessment of the seismic response and resultant associated with such becomes necessary. The present study employs machine learning models effectively predict classify level for benchmark unreinforced building. In this regard, eight regression-based models, namely, Linear Regression (LR), Stepwise (SLR), Ridge (RR), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Gaussian Process (GPR), Decision Tree (DT), Random Forest (RF), Neural Networks (NN), were used building’s responses. Additionally, classification-based Naïve Bayes (NB), Discriminant Analysis (DA), K-Nearest Neighbours (KNN), Adaptive Boosting (AB), DT, RF, SVM, NN, explored purpose categorizing states material properties intensity considered as input parameters. results from regression indicate that GPR model efficiently predicts larger coefficients determination smaller root mean square error values than models. Among AB, NN accuracy levels 92.9%, 91.1%, 92.6%, respectively. conclusion, overall performance non-parametric GPR, was found be better parametric
