A spectral characteristic analysis method for distinguishing heavy metal pollution in crops: VMD-PCA-SVM

Exploring the characteristics and types of heavy metal pollution in crops has important implications for food security and human health. In this study, a method for distinguishing heavy metal-polluted elements in corn leaves was proposed. Based on the spectral data obtained from corn leaves polluted by Cu and Pb, the spectra were divided into four characteristic regions. Variational mode decomposition (VMD) was used to decompose the first-order...
