| Abstract: |
Accurately determining the favorable areas of geothermal resources and selecting the target positions of exploration wells are extremely important for exploration and efficient development. This study used the Pearson correlation coefficient and Gini gain to analyze five influencing factors related to the presence of economically viable geothermal potential. The evaluation model of the favorable areas was constructed by using different Machine Learning (ML) methods: Bayesian classifier (Bayes), Support Vector Machine, Bootstrap Aggregating (Bagging), BP neural network, Decision Tree and Logistic Regression classification. The quality of each model was verified by statistical evaluation indicators: Accuracy (ACC), F1 score (F1) and Receiver Operating Characteristic curve (ROC curve). The methodology was applied to the case study of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. Due to the results obtained, all ML models showed strong prediction and classification performance on the target area selection of geothermal exploration, as evidenced by each model’s metrics: the ACC was above 80%, the F1 was above 0.8, and the Area Under the ROC Curve (AUC) was greater than 0.85. The metrics obtained by the Bagging method were the highest. Finally, the results of the six ML models were combined to classify the study area’s geothermal potential, which was consistent with the available information. This study provides a specific basis and technical support for applying the method in further surveys and campaigns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
