Identification of abiotic stress in Psidium guajava plant sample using LIBS method combined with machine learning approach
摘要
The primary objective of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of employing Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) in combination with machine learning algorithms for the identification and assessment of abiotic stress in plants. The machine learning approaches considered are multilinear regression (MLR), support vector regression (SVR), partial least squares regression (PLSR), least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and Gaussian process regression (GPR). The stress condition (based on nutrient content - Ca and K) in the sample is also estimated using the calibration-free LIBS (CF-LIBS) method. The experiments are carried out by varying the laser irradiances and stand-off plasma collection distances. It is observed that the Ca concentration in the normal sample is higher than the K concentration, regardless of the incident laser irradiance and stand-off plasma collection distance. The opposite trend is observed in abiotically stressed samples. A clear distinction is observed between normal and abiotically stressed samples in the LIBS spectrum. The GPR method trained on normalized dataset (
