Abstract

The issue of agricultural pollution has become one of the most important environmental concerns worldwide because of its relevance to human survival and health. Microbial remediation is an effective method for treating heavy metal pollution in agriculture, but the evaluation of its effectiveness has been a difficult issue. Machine learning (ML), a widely used data processing technique, can improve the accuracy of assessments and predictions by analyzing and processing large amounts of data. In microbial remediation, ML can help identify the types of microbes, mechanisms of action and adapted environments, predict the effectiveness of microbial remediation and potential problems, and assess the ecological benefits and crop growth after remediation. In addition, ML can help optimize monitoring programs, improve the accuracy and effectiveness of heavy metal pollution monitoring, and provide a scientific basis for the development of treatment measures. Therefore, ML has important application prospects in assessing the effectiveness of microbial remediation of heavy metal pollution in agriculture and is expected to be an effective pollution management technology.
