Researchers have developed a machine learning framework to predict the splitting strength of asphalt concrete, utilizing 296 samples and 14 input variables. Six models were compared, with TabPFN demonstrating the best performance, achieving an R^2 of 0.88 and a composite score of 0.91. SHAP analysis identified key variables influencing the strength, and optimal parameter ranges were quantified to improve the material's performance. A graphical user interface was also created to make the framework more accessible. AI
