摘要

Thorium (Th), a promising nuclear fuel, requires accurate detection for efficient resource utilization. This study employed LIBS combined with PLSR and RF models to quantify Th in complex ores. Training set augmentation significantly improved prediction accuracy, reducing RMSEP to 495.58 ppm (PLSR) and 306.00 ppm (RF). PCA-based dimensionality reduction followed by SVM and RF classification yielded accuracies of 97.92% and 87.5%, respectively. Results highlight the effectiveness of training set optimization and hybrid modeling in enhancing LIBS performance. The proposed approach enables rapid, in situ Th analysis, offering strong support for thorium resource exploration and nuclear energy development.
