This study aims to compare decision tree (DT) and artificial neural network (ANN) models, in addition, the efficiency of geomorphic surface attributes in predicting soil texture classes. The study area is located in the north of Chaharmahal and Bakhtiari province, central west Iran, and covers 6875 ha. Ninety-six pedons were excavated on separated geoforms. Soil samples of top soil (A horizon) were analyzed for clay, sand, and silt contents. Totally 57 auxiliary variables, including the derivatives of digital elevation model (DEM), Landsat 8 images, geomorphic surface map, geology map, and land-use map, were used to predict both soil texture classes and soil particle size fractions. Root-mean-square error (RMSE), R² or the coefficient of determination (R_square), overall accuracy, and Kappa coefficient were selected as criteria for evaluating model performance. The R-square coefficients of clay, silt, and sand fractions for both models, respectively, were 0.41, 0.25, and 0.63 for ANN and 0.52, 0.62, and 0.75 for DT. According to RMSE, R-square, overall accuracy, and Kapa coefficient of validation data, the DT model produced better prediction fits to the both soil particle-size fraction and soil texture classes and was the most accurate classifier model. The parameters were 0.59, 0.09, 0.66, and 0.24 for ANN and 0.41, 0.75, 0.76, and 0.60 for DT models, respectively. The accuracy of each individual soil texture class was generally dependent upon the number of soil texture observations in each texture class. According to this fact, both models had better prediction for silty clay loam and clay loam texture classes.
