Soil conditioning is an effective measure to solve the problems in the construction process of earth pressure balance (EPB) shield, such as cutter clogging and cutter abrasions. The use of machine learning models to predict soil conditioners varying with geological conditions can not only reduce the aforementioned construction risks, but also make up for the lag in determining the amount of modifier by test method. Based on the shield project of Shenyang Metro Line 4, the excavation data of 1 396 ring are preprocessed, and torque penetration index (TPI) and field penetration index (FPI) are used as the criteria for the soil conditioning effect to select good datasets. The Optuna-XGBoost model is established to predict the soil conditioners. The results show that Optuna algorithm owns obvious advantages over other methods in hyperparameters optimization. Compared with the other five prediction models, Optuna-XGBoost model owns higher accuracy under changeable geological conditions.
