Unconfined compressive strength (UCS) is an important parameter of rock and soil mechanical behavior in foundation engineering design construction. In this study, salinized frozen selected as the research object, GDS tests, ultrasonic scanning electron microscopy (SEM) tests are conducted. Based on classification method model parameters, 2 macroscopic 38 mesoscopic 19 microscopic parameters selected. A machine learning used to predict considering three-level characteristic parameters. Four accuracy evaluation indicators evaluate six models. The results show that radial basis function (RBF) has best UCS predictive performance for both training testing stages. terms acceptable stability loss, through analysis gray correlation rough set total amount proportion optimized so there 2, 16, 16 macro, meso, micro a sequence, respectively. simulation aforementioned models with RBF still performs optimally. addition, after optimization, sensitivity third-level more reasonable. proved be effective predicting UCS. This study improves prediction ability by classifying optimizing provides useful reference future salty seasonally regions.
