abstract = "In this study, a robust variant of genetic
programming, namely gene expression programming (GEP)
was used to build a prediction model for the strength
of concrete under triaxial compression loading. The
proposed model relates the concrete triaxial strength
to mix design parameters. A comprehensive database used
for building the model was established on the basis of
the results of 330 tests on concrete specimens under
triaxial compression. To verify the predictability of
the GEP model, it was employed to estimate the concrete
strength of the specimens that were not included in the
modelling process. Further, the model was externally
validated using several statistical criteria
recommended by researchers. A sensitivity analysis was
carried out to determine the contributions of the
parameters affecting the concrete strength. The
proposed model is effectively capable of evaluating the
ultimate strength of concrete under triaxial
compression loading. The derived model performs
superior when compared with other empirical models
found in the literature. The GEP-based design equation
can readily be used for predesign purposes or may be
used as a fast check on solutions developed by more
in-depth deterministic analyses.",
