Figure 6:

Results of identification of soil type with the developed LSTM network (predicted data) in comparison with known borehole profiles (actual data). The profile includes the following data numbers: profile 1 (0–540), profile 2 (540–2115), profile 3 (2115–2837), profile 4 (2837–3547), profile 5 (3547–4600), profile 6 (4600–5318), profile 7 (5318–6304), profile 8 (6304–8060).
