ABSTRACT

Soil organic matter (SOM) is an important source of nutrients required during crop growth and is an important component of cultivated soil. In this paper, we studied the possibility of using deep learning methods to establish a multi-feature model to predict SOM content. Moreover, using Nong’an County of Changchun City as the study area, Sentinel-2A remote sensing images were taken as the data source to construct the dataset by using field sampling and image processing. The LeNet-5 convolutional neural network model was chosen as the deep learning model, which was improved based on the basic model. The evaluation metrics were selected as the root mean square error (RMSE) and the coefficient of determination R2. Through comparison, the R2 of the improved model was found to be higher than that of the linear regression method, Support Vector Machines (SVM) (RMSE = 2.471, R2 = 0.4035), and Random Forest (RF) (RMSE = 2.577, R2 = 0.4913). The result shows that: (1) It is feasible to use the multispectral data extracted from remote sensing images for soil organic matter content inversion based on the deep learning model with a minimum RMSE of 2.979 and with the R2 reaching 0.89. (2) The choice of features has an impact on the prediction of the model to a certain extent. After ranking the importance of features, selecting the appropriate number of features for inversion provides better results than full feature inversion, and the computational speed is improved.
