Abstract Rockburst is a prevalent geological hazard in deep geotechnical engineering, and its accurate prognostication is vital for prevention measures. Consequently, this research proffers a pioneering classification prediction methodology, namely Cross Reconstruction Learning (CR), underpinned by conventional machine learning algorithms and metric learning strategies. Initially, this technique partitions and restructures the original dataset, where each sample feature intersects and reconfigures with features from other samples within the set. During this amalgamation, new samples are assigned labels based on the degree of divergence or congruity between two sets of sample labels, thereby forming a new set of samples. Subsequently, an array of machine learning algorithms is utilized to train and test this new dataset. Ultimately, employing a universal class voting mechanism and decoding test set results through probability assignment, the predicted labels are converted back into rock burst outcomes, thereby determining the final prediction classification. The proposed model was trained on a database encompassing 239 instance samples, and its performance was validated against the currently proficient models (KNN, XGBoost, and Random Forest algorithms) employed in rock burst prediction. The outcome revealed a decline in the performance metrics of all three machine learning algorithms when interfaced with the Cross Reconstruction learning method, particularly the KNN algorithm, owing to the doubled feature dimensions in the combined dataset. However, the metrics of ensemble models, XGBoost and Random Forest, exhibited a notable improvement compared to the original classification models. On comparing multiple performance metrics, it was discovered that the CR-XGBoost model outperformed others across all evaluations, thereby offering significant guidance for practical engineering applications.
