In civil works and mining projects, it is common to evaluate the stability of cuts and banks in rock mass slopes using the SMR and Qslope geomechanical indices, since it is very difficult to evaluate with analytical and numerical methods in real time. Some authors found correlations between these geomechanical indices applied in different lithologies and geological environments. However, the correlation proposals between these two indices express a numerical relationship, but they do not express an adequate correlation between the slope behavior predictions. Maion (2019) exposed in his thesis “Correlation proposal between the SMR and Qslope indices'' the correlation between the Qslope and SMR indices, and proposed an index that is the ratio between the Qslope and the slope angle that best represents the predictive behavior of the slope; it also proposes a correlation between this index and the SMR. The methodology followed by Maion (2019) to obtain the correlations is established in a similar way. The research that has been developed is of a predictive exploratory type carried out on 163 rock masses with different types of lithology and structural configuration compiled from engineering projects, mostly roads. The input parameters of the Qslope and SMR indices were obtained from the RMR and from the kinematic analysis with the DIPS Software. For the calculation of the SMR index, the SMRTool spreadsheet was used, and for the calculation of the Qslope index, its geomechanical parameters were obtained from the RMR evaluation sheet and from the kinematic analysis. It is proposed to find new comparative stability limits to Nick Barton's proposal with the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm where the final result is the optimal cutting angle as a new proposal. The regression analysis between the Qslope index and SMR is performed, obtaining a linear equation; and a proposed correlation equation between the stability index and the SMR where the stability index is the ratio of the optimum angle to the current angle of the slope. To improve the determination coefficient of the correlation equation between the stability index and the SMR, the DBSCAN algorithm was applied, which groups the areas of higher density called clusters and identifies the points that do not have a group called noise. The proposal of a linear correlation equation between the indices of the empirical methods Qslope and SMR was obtained, being two linear correlations obtained between the stability index proposed by Maion and the SMR index value; and the new proposed stability index obtained from the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm and the SMR index value. It is concluded that the linear correlation equation obtained between the stability index and the SMR is representative and applicable for the evaluation of the stability and proposal of the slope of the cut as a preliminary value.
