Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of element analysis and detection based on deep learning, and particularly relates to a method and system for quantitative detection of rare earth elements in deep sea LIBS by integrating spatial information. Background Technique
[0002] The complex deep-sea environment, high pressure, low visibility, and intense water body disturbance pose great challenges to the in-situ detection and quantitative analysis of rare earth elements. Most of the current underwater element detection methods face problems such as poor in-situ performance, strong signal interference, low detection accuracy, and lack of spatial information, making it difficult to meet the requirements of efficient, accurate, and automated exploration of rare earth resources. The existing methods for quantitative detection of rare earth elements mainly include the following three types:
[0003] Laboratory post-processing analysis method: This method combines inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for quantitative detection of rare earth elements and is one of the most widely used techniques in current rare earth element detection. After collecting deep-sea sediment samples, complex pre-treatment processes such as acid dissolution and purification are carried out in the laboratory, and then ICP-MS is used for highly sensitive quantitative analysis. Although its detection accuracy is high, this method highly depends on sample recovery and laboratory conditions and cannot achieve in-situ real-time detection. At the same time, the sample may be contaminated or its composition may change during transportation and processing, affecting the representativeness and reliability of the data. In addition, this method has high costs and long time consumption and is not suitable for large-scale and rapid underwater resource investigation tasks.
[0004] Underwater laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) in-situ detection method: Due to its in-situ detection ability, this method has been attempted to be applied to underwater element identification and sediment characterization. Related technologies are mostly based on integrating the LIBS probe into a submersible platform to achieve laser excitation and spectral acquisition of the sediment surface. However, traditional underwater LIBS devices mainly directly excite the sediment surface and lack the ability to sample and enrich internal components, resulting in the rare earth element signal being easily affected by environmental factors such as sediment coverage and seawater disturbance, with low detection signal-to-noise ratio and poor stability. In addition, most existing underwater LIBS systems are single-point detections and do not integrate spatial information, making it difficult to achieve regional-level element distribution modeling and enrichment trend identification.
[0005] Machine learning-based single-point modeling method: This method attempts to apply machine learning methods to the prediction of rare earth element concentrations in LIBS spectral data, and uses algorithms such as support vector regression (SVR) and random forest to model the collected single-point spectral data. To a certain extent, such methods have improved the intelligent level of data processing. However, most of their models are constructed based on single-point spectral features, fail to consider the spatial correlation between sampling points, and lack the ability to express regional structural information. At the same time, such models are easily affected by the limitations of training samples, have insufficient generalization ability, are difficult to maintain prediction stability and accuracy in complex deep-sea geological backgrounds, and have not yet formed an integrated detection system that can be deployed and operated in deep-sea environments.
[0006] Therefore, existing deep-sea rare earth element detection technologies have varying degrees of limitations in terms of in-situ detection, accuracy, anti-interference ability, and spatial information integration, and are difficult to meet the current requirements for efficient, accurate, and automated deep-sea resource exploration. In this context, there is an urgent need to develop an integrated technical path with in-situ detection capabilities, high-sensitivity analysis performance, and regional modeling and expression capabilities to break through the limitations of traditional methods and achieve rapid, stable, and intelligent identification of deep-sea rare earth elements, thereby providing strong technical support for the scientific assessment and strategic development of seabed resources. Summary of the Invention
[0007] In view of the above problems, the present invention proposes an integrated technical path with in-situ detection capabilities, high-sensitivity analysis performance, and regional modeling and expression capabilities to break through the limitations of traditional methods and achieve rapid, stable, and intelligent identification of deep-sea rare earth elements, thereby providing strong technical support for the scientific assessment and strategic development of seabed resources.
[0008] The first aspect of the present invention provides a method for quantitatively detecting rare earth elements in deep-sea LIBS by integrating spatial information, including the following processes:
[0009] S1, based on an integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device and a regional sampling path and point distribution strategy, perform multi-point deep-sea sediment sampling in the target area to obtain rare earth element samples to be measured in the target area, record the corresponding spatial position information, and then detect the spectral characteristics of each sample to be measured by laser excitation;
[0010] S2, use different sampling points as nodes Node in the graph structure, combine the spectral characteristics and spatial distances of the sampling points to construct the edge Edge structure of the graph, encode the spectral characteristics and spatial position information of each sampling point as node features, and convert the sample data to be measured into graph structure data as the standard input data for the rare earth element concentration detection model;
[0011] S3. Input the graph structure data in S2 into the rare earth element concentration detection model based on the graph neural network (GNN) that has been constructed and trained. The model extracts the spatial correlation features of rare earth elements through the node feature propagation and aggregation mechanism of the GNN, and outputs the rare earth element concentration at each sampling point.
[0012] S4. Based on the rare earth element concentration at each sampling point within the target area, use the regional aggregation algorithm to calculate the regional-level rare earth enrichment trend and output the enrichment level.
[0013] Preferably, the specific structure and sampling process of the integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device are as follows:
[0014] The device includes a sample chamber, a reaction chamber, an ROV manipulator, four deep-water motors and their corresponding piston structures.
[0015] Among them, the fourth deep-water motor is connected to the sampling piston through a slider and is controlled by the manipulator; the third deep-water motor is connected to the acid piston through a slider. The right chamber of the acid piston is connected to the reaction chamber through a pipeline, and an acid addition port is provided in the connecting chamber; a stirring and drainage integrated pump assembly is provided at the bottom of the reaction chamber; the reaction chamber is connected to the sample chamber through a pipeline and a stop valve; among them, the first deep-water motor is connected to the suction filtration and decompression piston through a slider. The right chamber of the suction filtration and decompression piston is connected to the sample chamber through a pipeline, and a pressure sensor is provided on the sample chamber; the second deep-water motor is connected to the seawater piston through a slider. The right chamber of the seawater piston is connected to the left chamber of the suction filtration and decompression piston through a pipeline; a seawater inlet is provided in the left chamber of the seawater piston.
[0016] Through the operation of the ROV manipulator, insert the sampling piston driven by the fourth deep-water motor into the deep-sea sediment in the predetermined area, and the motor drives the piston to draw backward to complete the collection of the sediment sample; then insert the piston into the reaction chamber and drive it in the reverse direction to push the sediment into the reaction chamber.
[0017] The third deep-water motor drives the acid piston to inject a preset volume of quantitative acid into the reaction chamber for sample pretreatment.
[0018] Start the stirring and drainage integrated pump to drive the impeller in the chamber to rotate, so that the acid and the sediment are fully mixed and reacted, and the rare earth elements in the sediment are fully dissolved into the acid to achieve component release.
[0019] After the mixing reaction is completed, the first deep-water motor drives the piston to extract the processed mixed sample in the reaction chamber into the special sample chamber for LIBS detection.
[0020] After closing the electric shut-off valve in the sample chamber, the first deep-water motor continues to pump. Due to the sealing of the system, the pressure in the chamber will gradually decrease. The pressure in the sample chamber is monitored by a pressure sensor. When the pressure in the sample chamber drops to the set value, the sample is at the target pressure and in a sealed state. As a test sample for LIBS detection, it can be directly used in laser excitation experiments.

Furthermore, after each sampling step, the robotic arm is cleaned and reset before proceeding to the next sampling point.

N ; At the same time, record the spatial information St of each sampling point i , including longitude lg i , latitude lt i , depth dp i , namely St i =[lg i ,lt i , dp i ], and i∈[1, N]; finally, we get the spatial information St1, St2, ..., St of N samples. N ;
[0024] S13, determine the type of rare earth element to be detected; then send the collected samples to the shipboard laboratory for concentration calibration experiment, and use inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry to measure the rare earth element concentration values Rc1, Rc2, ..., Rc at N sampling points. N , which is used as the concentration label of the sample, where each rare earth element concentration value Rc i They all contain the concentration values of ten elements, and i∈[1,N];

The LIBS spectral data corresponding to each node and the spatial position information are jointly used as the feature representation of the node; the feature vector of each node is represented as X i , and i ∈ [1, N];
[0028] Graph edge construction: Based on the spatial distance and spectral similarity between each pair of nodes, it is jointly determined whether to establish an edge connection; the three-dimensional spatial distance calculation between each pair of sampling points is represented as Dis ij , j ∈ [1, N] and j ≠ i;
[0029] Calculate the spectral similarity Cos between spectra ij , representing the spectral similarity between the i-th sampling point and the j-th sampling point. Cos ij ∈ [0, 1], and the larger Cos ij is, the higher the spectral similarity between the two sampling points. Conversely, the spectral similarity is lower; then, calculate the overall similarity Sim between the i-th sampling point and the j-th sampling point ij ;
[0030] Finally, select the K sampling points with the highest similarity to establish an edge Edge connection, and assign a feature vector containing spatial and spectral information to Edge:
[0031] E ij = [Dis ij , Sim ij
[0032] Among them, E ij is the Edge feature between node i and node j, and i, j ∈ [1, N];
[0033] Complete graph construction: Based on graph node construction and graph edge construction, the data containing spectral data Sp1, Sp2,..., Sp N and spatial position information St1, St2,..., St N is characterized as a complete graph representation G = (X, E), where X represents the set containing all N sampling point nodes, and each node is attached with a spectrum-position fusion feature vector X i ; E represents the set of all edges, and each edge is attached with a corresponding Edge feature vector E ij .
[0034] Preferably, the rare earth element concentration detection model based on the graph neural network GNN includes an input feature encoding layer, a spatial perception module, and a rare earth element prediction module;

[0038] Preferably, the specific process of S4 is as follows:
[0039] Divide the overall area to be detected into R square grids of equal size, and divide each sampling point into different local area grids;
[0040] For each delimited area, summarize the rare earth element concentration prediction values of all sampling points within the area, and calculate the average concentration μ r and variance Δ r , μ r and Δ r respectively represent the rare earth average concentration and variance of the r-th area, and r ∈ [1, R];
[0041] Set multi-level discrimination rules and set threshold parameters, including the rare earth high enrichment mean parameter μ high , high enrichment variance parameter Δ high , and medium enrichment mean parameter μ mid ; use these threshold parameters to determine whether the area is a rare earth enrichment area and assign a rare earth enrichment level label.

[0079] I. Specific implementation of the integrated deep - sea LIBS sampling device
[0080] The components in deep - sea sediments are complex and the environment is extremely harsh. To exclude the influence of other components in the sediments on the rare - earth element LIBS signal and enhance the excitation and collection efficiency of the rare - earth element LIBS signal, the present invention designs an integrated deep - sea LIBS sampling device, which can filter out other particulate matters in the sediments and enrich rare - earth elements through electric - field phase transformation, and can finally realize the collection of rare - earth elements in the sediments and the enhancement of LIBS signals. The sampling device is as Figure 2 shown:
[0081] The device includes a sample chamber, a reaction chamber, an ROV manipulator, four groups of deep - water motors and their corresponding piston structures;
[0082] Among them, the fourth deep - water motor is connected to the sampling piston through a slider and is controlled by a robotic arm; the third deep - water motor is connected to the acid piston through a slider. The right chamber of the acid piston is connected to the reaction chamber through a pipeline, and an acid - adding port is arranged in the connecting chamber; a stirring and drainage integrated pump assembly is arranged at the bottom of the reaction chamber; the reaction chamber is connected to the sample chamber through a pipeline and a stop valve; among them, the first deep - water motor is connected to the suction filtration and decompression piston through a slider. The right chamber of the suction filtration and decompression piston is connected to the sample chamber through a pipeline, and a pressure sensor is arranged on the sample chamber; among them, the second deep - water motor is connected to the seawater piston through a slider. The right chamber of the seawater piston is connected to the left chamber of the suction filtration and decompression piston through a pipeline; a seawater inlet is arranged in the left chamber of the seawater piston.
[0083] Sampling process: The purpose of this process is to complete the extraction, acid dissolution, stirring and concentration pretreatment of deep - sea sediments, and finally obtain rare - earth element samples for LIBS detection. The specific steps are as follows:
[0084] (1) Sediment sampling: Through the operation of the ROV robotic arm, the sampling piston driven by the fourth deep - water motor is inserted into the deep - sea sediments in the predetermined area. The motor drives the piston to draw backward to complete the collection of sediment samples; then the piston is inserted into the reaction chamber and driven in the reverse direction to push the sediment into the reaction chamber.
[0085] (2) Automatic sealing of the reaction chamber and acid injection: After pulling out the piston, the spring cover on the reaction chamber automatically closes to ensure the airtightness of the chamber environment; the third deep - water motor drives the acid piston to inject a preset volume of quantitative acid into the reaction chamber for sample pretreatment.
[0086] (3) Sample dissolution and mixing: Start the stirring and drainage integrated pump to drive the impeller in the chamber to rotate at high speed, so that the acid and the sediment are fully mixed and reacted, and the rare - earth elements in the sediment are fully dissolved into the acid to achieve component release.
[0087] (4) Sample transfer: After the mixing reaction is completed, the first deep - water motor drives the piston to extract the treated mixed sample in the reaction chamber into the special sample chamber for LIBS detection.
[0088] (5) Pressure regulation of the sample chamber: After closing the electric stop valve of the sample chamber, the deep - water motor continues to extract. Due to the system sealing, the pressure in the chamber will gradually decrease. The pressure sensor monitors the pressure of the sample chamber. When the pressure of the sample chamber drops to the set value (set to 11 MPa in the present invention), the sample preparation is completed.
[0089] (6) Obtaining the sample to be measured: At this time, the sample is already in the target pressure and sealed state. As the sample S to be measured for LIBS detection, it can be directly used for the laser excitation experiment.
[0090] Device Cleaning and Circulation Reset Process: The purpose of this process is to complete the cleaning and reset of the sample chamber and the pipelines in the system, prepare for the next sampling cycle, and thus ensure the long-term operation stability of the system. It specifically includes the following steps:
[0091] (1) Preparation for Seawater Flushing after Sampling: After the detection is completed, the second deep-sea motor drives the seawater piston to pump a preset volume of clean seawater; then the stop valve is opened, and the piston is further pushed to cross the flushing interface position;
[0092] (2) Flushing of the Sample Chamber: The first deep-sea motor continues to drive the seawater piston to push out all the seawater in the piston, completing the flushing of the sample chamber to prevent residual contamination from affecting the next detection;
[0093] (3) Cleaning of the Reaction Chamber: Synchronously start the reverse function of the stirring and drainage integrated pump to discharge the residual liquid and samples in the reaction chamber out of the chamber, completing the cleaning of the chamber;
[0094] (4) Device Reset: All motors return to their positions and standby, and the device is ready for the next sampling task.
[0095] Therefore, the sampling process using the integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device can obtain the sample S to be detected, and then prepare for the next sampling process through the cleaning reset and preparation process. By using the integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device, first execute the sampling process to effectively obtain the rare earth element sample to be detected; subsequently, execute the device cleaning and circulation reset process to thoroughly flush and reset the sample chamber and the pipeline system, and prepare for the next sampling process.

This process includes:
[0098] S2-1, Control the ROV manipulator to move forward along a Z-shaped route parallel to the seabed topography, and set sampling points at equal intervals on the path to ensure uniform coverage of the entire target area horizontally and vertically; in addition, perform the cleaning and reset operation after each sampling, and then go to the next sampling point;

[0105] Graph node construction: Each sampling point is regarded as a node in the graph and there are a total of N nodes, and the LIBS spectral data corresponding to each node and the spatial position information are jointly used as the feature representation of the node; each node feature vector can be expressed as:
[0106] X i =[Sp i ,St i =[Sp i ,lg i ,lt i ,dp i
[0107] Among them, X i represents the node feature vector of the i-th sampling point, Sp i ,St i are the spectral data and spatial position information of the i-th sampling point respectively, lg i ,lt i ,dp i are the longitude, latitude and depth positions of the i-th sampling point respectively, and i ∈ [1, N];
[0108] Graph edge construction: Based on the spatial distance and spectral similarity between each pair of nodes, it is jointly determined whether to establish an edge connection; the calculation of the three-dimensional spatial distance between each pair of sampling points is expressed as:
[0109]
[0110] Among them, Dis ij represents the spatial distance between the i-th sampling point and the k-th sampling point, lg j ,lt j ,dp j are the longitude, latitude and depth positions of the j-th sampling point respectively, k ∈ [1, N] and j ≠ i;
[0111] Calculate the spectral similarity between spectra:
[0112]
[0113] Among them, Cos ij represents the spectral similarity between the \(i\)-th sampling point and the \(k\)-th sampling point, Cos ij ∈[0, 1] and Cos ij The larger the value, the higher the spectral similarity between the two sampling points. Conversely, the lower the spectral similarity; Sp j represents the spectral data of the \(j\)-th sampling point, where \(j\in[1, N]\) and \(j\neq i\); ||*|| is the modulus operation;
[0114] After that, calculate the overall similarity Sim between the \(i\)-th sampling point and the \(k\)-th sampling point ij :
[0115]
[0116] where \(\alpha_1\) and \(\alpha_1\) are weight coefficients; for the \(i\)-th sampling point, calculate the overall similarity between this sampling point and other sampling points, Sim i1 , Sim i2 ,..., Sim iN , where Sim i1 and Sim iN represent the overall similarities between the \(i\)-th sampling point and the 1st and \(N\)-th sampling points respectively;
[0117] Finally, select the \(K\) sampling points with the highest similarity to establish an edge (Edge) connection, and assign a feature vector containing spatial and spectral information to Edge:
[0118] E ij = [Dis ij , Sim ij
[0119] where \(E\) ij is the Edge feature between node \(i\) and node \(j\), and \(i, k\in[1, N]\).
[0120] Complete graph construction: Based on graph node construction and graph edge construction, represent the spectral data Sp1, Sp2,..., Sp N and spatial position information St1, St2,..., St N in the dataset as a complete graph representation \(G=(X, E)\), where \(X\) represents the set containing all \(N\) sampling point nodes, and each node is attached with a spectrum-position fusion feature vector \(X\) i ; \(E\) represents the set of all edges, and each edge is attached with a corresponding Edge feature vector \(E\) ij ; Finally, the graph representation \(G=(X, E)\) is used as the input of the rare earth element quantitative detection model based on graph neural network and is used to predict the rare earth element concentration values Rc1, Rc2,..., Rc N .
[0121] IV. Rare Earth Element Concentration Detection Model Based on GNN
[0122] In order to fully explore the correlation of rare earth element concentrations in spatial distribution and improve the quantitative recognition ability of LIBS spectral data, the present invention constructs a rare earth element concentration detection model based on GNN; this model takes the constructed spectral-position fusion graph structure data as input, uses the feature propagation and aggregation mechanism of the graph neural network to learn the correlation relationship between nodes in the global learning graph structure from the global, and realizes the accurate prediction of the rare earth element concentration at each sampling point; at the same time, through the regional-level aggregation algorithm, the recognition and detection of the rare earth enrichment trend within the region are realized; the rare earth element concentration detection model based on GNN is as Figure 3 shown, and specifically includes the following steps:
[0123] Input Feature Encoding Layer: Taking the graph representation G=(X, E) containing the node feature vector X i and the Edge feature vector E ij as input, respectively perform feature encoding on X i and E ij through a multi-layer perceptron, and obtain the encoded node feature and edge feature
[0124] Spatial Perception Module: This module performs spatial correlation modeling and feature interaction on the encoded node feature and edge feature to achieve spatial structure constraint modeling; this module consists of L spatial perception graph attention layers; in each layer, calculate the attention weight by combining the similarity between node features and the spatial distance attenuation factor, ensure that adjacent nodes with high similarity obtain higher weights, and suppress the interference of distant noise nodes on the central node representation, thereby improving the accuracy of local spatial modeling; finally, through multi-layer spatial perception graph attention propagation, the model can gradually learn the context information of different neighborhood scales and realize the in-depth exploration of the distribution law of rare earth elements; the calculation of the spatial perception graph attention layer is specifically expressed as:
[0125]
[0126] where and respectively represent the output and input node features of the i-th node in the l-th layer of the spatial perception graph attention layer, and l∈[1, L]; N(i) represents the set of neighbor nodes of the i-th node, ReL∪(*) is the ReLU activation function, ω ij represents the spatial attention weight between the i-th node and the j-th node; is the basic attention weight between the i-th node and the j-th node, βij is the corresponding spatial attenuation factor, and β ij is calculated as:

When l = 0, it is the output feature of the feature encoding layer and Dis ij is the spatial distance between the i-th sampling point and the j-th sampling point, and σ is the spatial attenuation factor parameter;
[0129] Therefore, each node feature and edge feature output by the feature encoding layer are sequentially input into L spatial-aware graph attention layers, and finally the encoded features of each node are obtained where i ∈ [1, N], and it is used as the output feature of the spatial-aware module.
[0130] Rare earth element prediction module: Based on the obtained encoded features of each node The encoded features of the nodes are compressed through a multi-layer perceptron, and then the rare earth element concentration prediction results of each sampling point are obtained through a fully connected layer and a ReLU activation function

[0132] (1) Divide the overall area to be detected into R equal-sized square grids, and divide each sampling point into different local area grids;
[0133] (2) For each delimited area, sum up the rare earth element concentration prediction values of all sampling points in the area, and calculate the average concentration μ r and variance Δ r , μ r and Δ r respectively represent the rare earth average concentration and variance of the r-th area, and r ∈ [1, R];
[0134] (3) Set multi-level discrimination rules and threshold parameters, including the rare earth high enrichment mean parameter μ high , high enrichment variance parameter Δ high , and medium enrichment mean parameter μ mid; These threshold parameters are used to determine whether the area is a rare earth enrichment area and assign rare earth enrichment level labels, as shown in Table 1:

During the training process, the mean square error (MSE) is used to calculate the loss function of element concentration prediction; Adam optimization algorithm is used for parameter update during model training, and finally the trained rare earth element concentration detection model is obtained.
[0139] The detection system is as Figure 4 shown, including the water surface part and the underwater part;
[0140] Among them, the underwater part includes the main cabin and the integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device; the main cabin contains a laser control module, a spectrometer, a power supply module, a control module, and an in-cabin status monitoring and feedback unit;
[0141] The LIBS optical probe is electrically connected to the spectrometer and includes a laser head and an auxiliary sampling device. The laser head is electrically connected to the laser control module; the integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device is based on the regional sampling path and point distribution strategy, conducts multi-point deep-sea sediment sampling in the target area to obtain samples to be measured, and through the auxiliary sampling device, conducts excitation experiments through the laser head to obtain spectral characteristics;

[0144] The rare earth element concentration detection model extracts the spatial correlation characteristics of rare earth elements through the node feature propagation and aggregation mechanism of GNN and outputs the rare earth element concentration of each sampling point;
[0145] The regional aggregation algorithm module uses the regional aggregation algorithm based on the rare earth element concentrations of each sampling point in the target area to calculate the regional-level rare earth enrichment trend and output the enrichment level.
[0146] Based on the obtained rare earth element concentration distribution and enrichment level results, the staff combines geological background information and actual exploration requirements to optimize the target area and deploy further operation decisions.
[0147] VI. Explanation of Experimental Results
[0148] To verify the effectiveness of the proposed deep-sea LIBS rare earth element quantitative detection method in rare earth element concentration prediction, the present invention conducted experimental tests and obtained the average concentration distributions of ten rare earth elements (La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho) in different regions, as Figure 5 shown; the results of the heat map analysis indicate that the method of the present invention can effectively achieve regional-level detection of the spatial distribution of rare earth elements, further verifying the feasibility of the method in deep-sea rare earth element quantitative analysis.
[0149] In addition, the present invention conducted a comparative analysis with three existing mainstream algorithm models for rare earth element concentration prediction, including support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and gradient boosting regression tree (GBRT). Moreover, taking the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) as the evaluation index, the rare earth element concentration prediction accuracies of the models at the sampling point level and the regional level were compared; specifically, multiple sampling points were selected in the area to be detected, and the predicted values of the rare earth element concentrations of each sampling point were obtained, and the average of all sampling points was taken and compared with the true element concentration to calculate the MAPE to obtain the final detection accuracy; similarly, for the evaluation of the rare earth element concentration prediction accuracy at the regional level, the entire area was first divided into grids, and the average of the rare earth detection concentrations of the sampling points within the area was taken, and the MAPE was calculated to obtain the rare earth concentration detection accuracy within the area; the experimental results are as Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown;
[0150] Because the method of the present invention uses an integrated deep-sea LIBS sampling device for rare earth sampling, it can effectively alleviate the interference caused by spectral overlap and complex soil composition, thereby improving the discrimination and quantitative ability of rare earth element identification. In addition, this method introduces a spatial attenuation attention factor based on GNN, which can fully utilize the spatial correlation of the distribution of rare earth elements in the geological background. By jointly modeling the spectral characteristics of adjacent sampling points with the spatial information of the target point, the model's ability to distinguish subtle differences is ultimately improved. Therefore, compared with existing methods (support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and gradient boosted regression tree (GBRT), the method of the present invention shows higher prediction accuracy in the detection of ten rare earth elements, reflecting stronger feature extraction capabilities and refined modeling level.
[0151] Furthermore, the proposed method enhances the model's robustness to local anomalies by introducing a graph modeling approach based on spatial information, thereby avoiding the impact of single-point data fluctuations on the overall prediction results. Furthermore, the GNN's propagation mechanism on graph data can deeply capture the potential connections between different sampling points, thereby enhancing the model's generalization ability across different geological regions and significantly reducing performance fluctuations in different element detection applications. Experimental results further validate the stability of the proposed method in detecting the concentrations of ten rare earth elements, thereby ensuring reliable prediction performance with high accuracy and low fluctuations even under complex geological conditions.

Those skilled in the art should understand that various modifications or variations that can be made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the technical solution of the present invention without creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
