Simultaneous Prediction of Soil Properties Using Multi_CNN Model

Soil nutrient prediction based on near-infrared spectroscopy has become the main research direction for rapid acquisition of soil information. The development of deep learning has greatly improved the prediction accuracy of traditional modeling methods. In view of the low efficiency and low accuracy of current soil prediction models, this paper proposes a soil multi-attribute intelligent prediction method based on convolutional neural networks, by constructing a dual-stream convolutional neural network model Multi_CNN that combines one-dimensional convolution and two-dimensional convolution, the intelligent prediction of soil multi-attribute is realized. The model extracts the characteristics of soil attributes from spectral sequences and spectrograms respectively, and multiple attributes can be predicted simultaneously by feature fusion. The model is based on two different-scale soil near-infrared spectroscopy data sets for multi-attribute prediction. The experimental results show that the RP2 of the three attributes of Total Carbon, Total Nitrogen, and Alkaline Nitrogen on the small dataset are 0.94, 0.95, 0.87, respectively, and the RP2 of the attributes of Organic Carbon, Nitrogen, and Clay on the LUCAS dataset are, respectively, 0.95, 0.91, 0.83, And compared with traditional regression models and new prediction methods commonly used in soil nutrient prediction, the multi-task model proposed in this paper is more accurate.
