abstract = "This paper presents a novel approach for the
determination of soil classification using a hybrid
search algorithm that couples genetic programming (GP)
and simulated annealing (SA), as a combined algorithm,
called GP/SA. Properties of soil namely, plastic limit,
liquid limit, colour of soil, percentage of gravel,
sand, and fine grained particles were used as input
variables to the models to determine the classification
of soils. The models were developed using a reliable
database obtained from the previously published
literature. The results of GP/SA based formulations
were found to be more accurate as compared to the
experimental, numerical and analytical results obtained
by other researchers.",
