An integrated source-pathway-receptor framework using XGBoost and SHAP improved differentiation of industrial versus agricultural PTE risks in farmland soils and supported targeted zoned control to avoid excessive remediation.
Researchers built an integrated risk index-machine learning framework based on source-pathway-receptor concepts to evaluate potentially toxic elements in farmland soils of a mining city, combining improved Nemerow index, potential ecological risk index, Monte Carlo health risk assessment, and XGBoost regression with SHAP interpretation.
