RESUMO
Hydrothermal biochar is a promising sustainable soil remediation agent for plant growth. Demands for biochar properties differ due to the diversity of soil environment. In order to achieve accurate biochar properties prediction and overcome the interpretability bottleneck of machine learning models, this study established a series of data-enhanced machine learning models and conducted relevant sensitivity analysis. Compared with traditional support vector machine, artificial neural network, and random forest models, the accuracy after data enhancement increased in average from 5.8% to 15.8%, where the optimal random forest model showed the average of accuracy was 94.89%. According to sensitivity analysis results, the essential factors influencing the predicting results of the models were reaction temperature, reaction pressure, and specific element of biomass feedstock. As a result, data-enhanced interpretable machine learning proved promising for the characteristics prediction of hydrothermal biochar.
