Abstract:We briefly review the state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) algorithms for mineral exploration, which mainly include random forest (RF), convolutional neural network (CNN), and graph convolutional network (GCN). In recent years, RF, a representative shallow machine learning algorithm, and CNN, a representative deep learning approach, have been proved to be powerful tools for ML-based mapping for mineral exploration. In the future, GCN deserves more attention for ML-based mapping for mineral exploration becaus… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
