Rapid detection of molybdenum ore grade based on visible-infrared spectroscopy and MTSVD-TGJO-ELM.

ABSTRACT

The rapid determination of ore grade can improve the efficiency of beneficiation. The existing molybdenum ore grade determination methods lag behind the beneficiation work. Therefore, this paper proposes a method based on a combination of Visible-infrared spectroscopy and machine learning to rapidly determine molybdenum ore grade. Firstly, 128 molybdenum ores were collected as spectral test samples to obtain spectral data. Then 13 latent variables were extracted from the 973 spectral features using partial least square. The Durbin-Watson test and the runs test were used to detect the partial residual plots and augmented partial residual plots of LV1 and LV2 to determine the non-linear relationship between spectral signal and molybdenum content. Extreme Learning Machine (ELM) was used instead of linear modeling methods to model the grade of molybdenum ores because of the non-linear behavior of the spectral data. In this paper, the Golden Jackal Optimization of adaptive T-distribution was used to optimize the parameters of the ELM to solve the problem of unreasonable parameters. Aiming at solving ill-posed problems by ELM, this paper decomposes the ELM output matrix by using the improved truncated singular value decomposition. Finally, this paper proposes an extreme learning machine method based on a modified truncated singular value decomposition and a Golden Jackal Optimization of adaptive T-distribution (MTSVD-TGJO-ELM). Compared with other classical machine learning algorithms, MTSVD-TGJO-ELM has the highest accuracy. This provides a new method for rapid detection of ore grade in the mining process and facilitates accurate beneficiation of molybdenum ores to improve ore recovery rate.
