Abstract
Obtaining a comprehensive understanding of ore grade information is of significant importance for evaluating the value of ore. However, the real-time detection of multicomponent grade needs more effective online methods. This study proposes a novel approach utilizing hyperspectral imaging (HSI) to evaluate the grade information of nine major ilmenite components by integrating spectral and spatial data. Four multivariate input-output models were developed to mitigate variable interference to predict each component's grade. The results demonstrated that the backpropagation neural network (BPNN) model built from iPLS-VCPA-IRIV feature selection spectral data worked best (RP2 = 0.9935, RMSEP = 0.1364, RPD = 12.8986, and RPIQ = 21.4871, with a computational time of approximately 0.8 s). Furthermore, applying the best optimal combination algorithm for multicomponent grade inversion yielded highly accurate results, in which 97% of the component inversion residuals were less than 1. This investigation affirms that HSI enables rapid and accurate prediction and inversion of the multicomponent grade of ilmenite, thereby presenting a promising alternative to online analysis in the mineral field.
