Uncertainty-Aware Prediction of Unconfined Compressive Strength and Fracture Anisotropy in Deep Shales: A Leakage-Free Physics-Constrained Machine Learning Framework
The continuous prediction and uncertainty quantification of unconfined compressive strength (UCS) and the fracture-related index of anisotropy (FRIA) are essential for optimizing drilling operations and hydraulic fracturing design in shale gas development. However, machine-learni…
