Abstract
ABSTRACT The content of heavy metal Cu in soil is an important indicator for assessing soil quality. However, soil hyperspectral data contain a large amount of redundant data, which can affect the effectiveness of spectral modelling. To address this problem, a combined method based on Whale Optimization Algorithm and Successive Projection Algorithm (WOA-SPA) is proposed to select the characteristic bands. And a prediction model of soil heavy metal Cu content was constructed using the partial least squares method. The experimental results show that: (1) The prediction accuracy of soil Cu content using the WOA-PLSR model was higher than that of the SPA-PLSR model, with RPD increased by 0.229, the R2 increased by 0.07, and RMSE decreased by 0.354. (2) Running the WOA and WOA-SPA combination algorithms 30 times respectively to prove the stability of the algorithms, the prediction accuracy of the model constructed based on the WOA-SPA combination algorithm is better than that of the model constructed based on the WOA algorithm as a whole. (3) Compared with the WOA or SPA algorithm alone, the prediction model constructed based on the WOA-SPA algorithm has a better prediction performance, with RPD of 2.259, R2 of 0.804, and RMSE of 2.396 for the prediction set. (4) Comparing the spatial distribution maps of the measured and predicted values, it can be observed that the spatial distribution between the predicted Cu content values based on the combined WOA-SPA algorithm and the measured Cu content values are basically consistent. This study indicates that the WOA-SPA-PLSR model has good stability and prediction accuracy for the prediction of Cu content in soil, which is of great practical significance for the rapid and accurate estimation of heavy metal Cu content in soil.
