Battle Royale Optimization for Optimal Band Selection in Predicting Soil Nutrients Using Visible and Near-Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy and PLSR Algorithm.
Article in Journal of imaging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
An attempt was made to quantify soil properties using hyperspectral remote-sensing techniques and machine-learning algorithms. In total, 100 soil samples representing various locations and soil-nutrient statuses were collected, and the samples were analyzed for soil pH, EC, soil organic carbon, available nitrogen (AN), available phosphorus (AP), and available potassium (AK) by following standard methods. Soil had a wide range of properties, i.e., pH varied from 5.62 to 8.49, EC varied from 0.08 to 1.78 dS/m, soil organic carbon varied from 0.23 to 0.94%, available nitrogen varied from 154 to 344 kg/ha, available phosphorus varied from 9.5 to 25.5 kg/ha, and available potassium varied from 131 to 747 kg/ha. The same set of soil samples were subjected to spectral reflectance measurement using SVC GER 1500 Spectroradiometer (spectral range: 350 to 1050 nm). The measured spectral signatures of various soils were organized for developing a spectral library and for deriving various spectral indices to correlate with soil properties to quantify the nutrients. The soil samples were partitioned into 60:40 ratios for training and validation, respectively. In order to select optimum bands (wavelength) from the soil spectra, we have employed metaheuristic algorithms i.e., Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), Moth-Flame optimization (MFO), Flower Pollination Optimization (FPO), and Battle Royale Optimization (BRO) algorithm. Further partial least square regression (PLSR) was used to find the latent variable and to evaluate various algorithms for their performance in predicting soil properties. The results indicated that nutrients could be quantified from spectral reflectance measurement with fair to good accuracy through the Battle Royale Optimization technique with a R2 value of 0.45, 0.32, 0.48, 0.21, 0.71, and 0.35 for pH, EC, soil organic carbon, available-N, available-P, and available-K, respectively.
