Abstract
Provided herein is a method for determining a soil classification comprising: obtaining a soil sample; conducting two or more field tests on the soil sample to obtain raw data for each field test; and calculating the soil classification from the raw data by applying a previously obtained validation dataset obtained from a training and validation soil classification calculation using samples of known soil classification, wherein the validation dataset is obtained using a feed-forward backpropagation neural network.
