Selection of characteristic wavelengths using SPA for laser induced fluorescence spectroscopy of mine water inrush.

Abstract

In the process of prevention and control of water inrush disaster, it is of great significance to identify the type of water inrush source for coal mine safety production accurately and quickly. The application of laser induced fluorescence (LIF) technology to identify the water inrush in coal mine broke the shortage of the traditional hydrochemical method, which could realize the accurate and rapid identification of water inrush types. Firstly, in order to avoid the influence of random variations of spectral data, four kinds of common pretreatment methods were analyzed and compared, and the moving average smoothing method was chosen to preprocess the original fluorescence spectral data. Then, for the purpose of selecting the appropriate sample division method to improve the predictive performance of the model, four common sample division methods were compared, and the sample set partitioning based on joint x-y distance (SPXY) method was used to divide the samples into training set and test set. Further, the 10 characteristic wavelengths were selected by successive projections algorithm (SPA) to reduce the amount of data. Finally, the selected data was taken as input, the sigmoid function was selected as the activation function of extreme learning machine (ELM), and the number of hidden layer neurons was set to 34, which realized the construction of water source identification model. The prediction accuracy of ELM model for the training set and test set were 99.0% and 94.0%, respectively. In addition, the water samples collected at different time were mixed in the same way to form the independent verification set, and the prediction accuracy of the ELM water source identification model for independent verification set was 91.5%. The results shown that it was feasible to select the characteristic wavelengths of fluorescence spectra by using the SPA. The data of 10 characteristic wavelengths could fully represent the effective information of whole band spectrum. And it also provided a theoretical basis for the development of a special online identification instrument for mine water inrush.
