AI Technical Summary
Existing gold target prediction technologies ignore the causal mechanism between variables, rely on correlation and are easily affected by noise, and lack the integration of geological prior knowledge, resulting in low prediction accuracy and weak interpretability in shallow overburden areas.
The PCMCI algorithm, combined with geological prior constraints, is used to construct a mineralization causal map and extract causal guidance features. The model hyperparameters are then optimized using the gradient descent algorithm to predict gold ore target areas.
It improves the robustness and interpretability of the model, significantly enhances the accuracy of target area prediction in shallow-covered areas, and provides scientific evidence to support exploration and deployment.
