TLDR
In this article, the authors applied visible and near-infrared (VNIR) diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) to airdry soil (b2 mm) with auxiliary predictors including sand content or pH, and obtained validation root mean squared deviation (RMSD) estimates of 54 g kg − 1 for clay, 7.9 g kg � 1 for soil organic C (SOC), 5.6 g kg ¼ 1 for inorganic C (IC), and 5.5 cmolc kg - 1 for cation exchange capacity (C

Visible and Near Infrared Spectroscopy in Soil Science

TL;DR: A review on the state of soil visible-near infrared (vis-NIR) spectroscopy is provided in this article, focusing on important soil attributes such as soil organic matter (SOM), minerals, texture, nutrients, water, pH, and heavy metals.

Using data mining to model and interpret soil diffuse reflectance spectra.

TL;DR: In this article, the root mean square error (RMSE) and the Akaike Information Criterion (AIC) were used to compare different data mining algorithms for modelling soil visible-near infrared (vis-NIR) diffuse reflectance spectra and to assess the interpretability of the results.

Critical review of chemometric indicators commonly used for assessing the quality of the prediction of soil attributes by NIR spectroscopy

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the critical points to be aware of when accuracy of NIR-based measurements is assessed and proposed a new index based on the quartiles of the empirical distribution.

A global spectral library to characterize the world’s soil

R. A. Viscarra Rossel, +41 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed and analyzed a global soil visible-near infrared (vis-NIR) spectral library, which is currently the largest and most diverse database of its kind, and showed that the information encoded in the spectra can describe soil composition and be associated to land cover and its global geographic distribution, which acts as a surrogate for global climate variability.

The Performance of Visible, Near-, and Mid-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy for Prediction of Soil Physical, Chemical, and Biological Properties

TL;DR: In this article, the applicability of visible (Vis), near-infrared (NIR), and mid infrared (MIR) reflectance spectroscopy for the prediction of soil properties is discussed.

Greedy function approximation: A gradient boosting machine.

TL;DR: A general gradient descent boosting paradigm is developed for additive expansions based on any fitting criterion, and specific algorithms are presented for least-squares, least absolute deviation, and Huber-M loss functions for regression, and multiclass logistic likelihood for classification.

A Decision-Theoretic Generalization of On-Line Learning and an Application to Boosting

TL;DR: The model studied can be interpreted as a broad, abstract extension of the well-studied on-line prediction model to a general decision-theoretic setting, and it is shown that the multiplicative weight-update Littlestone?Warmuth rule can be adapted to this model, yielding bounds that are slightly weaker in some cases, but applicable to a considerably more general class of learning problems.

Classification and regression trees

Leo Breiman
TL;DR: The methodology used to construct tree structured rules is the focus of a monograph as mentioned in this paper, covering the use of trees as a data analysis method, and in a more mathematical framework, proving some of their fundamental properties.
