摘要： Macronutrients, including nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), potassium (K), calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg), and sulfur (S), are the most basic nutrient elements in the solution for the hydroponic system. However, the current management of hydroponic nutrient solutions usually depends on EC and pH sensors due to the lack of accurate specific macronutrient sensing equipment, which easily leads to nutritional imbalance for the cultivated plant. In this study, the UV-NIR absorption spectroscopy (200-1100 nm) was used to predict six macronutrients in hydroponic solutions; two kinds of single-task learning algorithms, including partial least squares (PLS) and least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO), and two kinds of multi-task learning algorithms, including dirty multi-task learning (DMTL) and robust multi-task learning (RMTL), were investigated to develop prediction models and assess capabilities of UV-NIR. The results showed that N and Ca could be quantitatively predicted by UV-NIR with the ratio of performance to deviation (RPD) more than 2, K could be qualitatively predicted (1.4 < RPD < 2), and P, Mg, and S could not be successfully predicted (RPD < 1.4); the RMTL algorithm outperformed others for predicting K and Ca benefit from the underlying task relationships with N; and predicting P, Mg, and S were identified as irrelevant (outlier) tasks. Our study provides a potential approach for predicting several macronutrients in hydroponic solutions with UV-NIR, especially using RMTL to improve model prediction ability.
