Research on the evolution and prediction of the heights of water-conducting fracture zones in overlying rocks during layered mining of extremely thick coal seams by MENG Hailun, CHENG Xianggang, QIAO Wei

“…The model showed that correlation index R2＞0.90, MAE＜6.5 m, −0.5 m＜MBE＜0.5 m, indicating that the PSO-SVR model was capable of predicting the heights of water-conducting fracture zones in layered full-mechanized mining. ⑤ By substituting the data from the working face 9-15(08) into the PSO-SVR model, the absolute error between the predicted and observed values was 12.52 m, and the relative error was 4.86%, indicating that the PSO-SVR model could effectively and accurately predict the heights of the water-conducting fracture zones in extremely thick coal seams mining.…”
