| Summary: | Machine learning algorithm, as an important method for numerical modeling, has been widely used for chlorophyll-a concentration inversion modeling. In this work, a variety of models were built by applying five kinds of datasets and adopting back propagation neural network (BPNN), extreme learning machine (ELM), support vector machine (SVM). The results revealed that modeling with multi-factor datasets has the possibility to improve the accuracy of inversion model, and seven band combinations are better than seven single bands when modeling, Besides, SVM is more suitable than BPNN and ELM for chlorophyll-a concentration inversion modeling of Donghu Lake. SVM3 is the best inversion one among all multi-factor models that the mean relative error (MRE), mean absolute error (MAE), root mean square error (RMSE) of SF-SVM are 30.82%, 9.44 μg/L and 12.66 μg/L, respectively. SF-SVM performs best in single-factor models, MRE, MAE, RMSE of SF-SVM are 28.63%, 13.69 μg/L and 16.49 μg/L, respectively. In addition, the simulation effect of SVM3 is better than that of SF-SVM. On the whole, an effective model for retrieving chlorophyll-a concentration has been built based on machine learning algorithm, and our work provides a reliable basis and promotion for exploring accurate and applicable chlorophyll-a inversion model.
