However, accidents at work continue to be a problem. In 2019, 611,275 accidents occurred in Colombia. All of this led workers to file lawsuits against employers, resulting in rulings by the Supreme Court of Justice's Labor Cassation Chamber\u2014a topic that has been little studied.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This paper aims to develop and evaluate a machine learning model, the Surface Tension Neural Net-Decision Tree (STNN-DT), for classifying and predicting the favorability of verdicts related to employer liability in work accidents in Colombia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This cross-sectional study defines and trains the proposed system based on data collected from 76 different cases in the Colombian context between 2019 to 2020.
