Techniques for determining reservoir formation properties include generating digital models of core samples taken from one or more reservoir formations based on corresponding images of the core samples; determining a pore throat size distribution of the core samples based on the generated digital models; determining corresponding capillary pressure curves and corresponding NMR value distributions of the core samples with one or more numerical simulations; generating one or more machine-learning (ML) models based on the pore throat size distribution, corresponding capillary pressure curves, and corresponding NMR value distributions of the core samples; adjusting the one or more ML models with one or more reservoir data of the one or more reservoir formations; generating adjusted capillary pressure curves and NMR value distributions from the one or more adjusted ML models; and determining a reservoir formation specific pore throat size distribution from at least one of the adjusted capillary pressure curves or the adjusted NMR value distributions.
