摘要
In this paper, the authors propose a kernel minimum square error model for mineral target prediction on the basis of kernel function theories and kernel minimum square error. A VC++ program for raster data oriented mineral target prediction with minimum square error algorithm is developed on the basis of GDAL, a C++ library for the input and output of digital image data, and CLAPACK, a linear algebra software package. The model has been applied to the mineral target prediction in Altay, northern Xinjiang. It is shown that the areas with high discriminant scores coincide with the known mineral occurrences. Thus, the kernel minimum square error model is feasible for multivariate nonlinear mineral target prediction.
