Prediction of the axial compression capacity of stub CFST columns using machine learning techniques

There is no verified maintained implementation yet. Use this baseline plan to decide whether to prototype now or defer.

• This is primarily a method paper. Reproduce it within a maintained framework baseline instead of chasing paper-specific repos.
• Start with framework-native implementations (e.g. PyTorch optimizer module, Optax, or Transformers training loops).
• Replicate the paper ablation settings first, then compare against modern baselines.
