Determination of rice (<i>Oryza sativa</i> L.) drought stress levels based on chlorophyll <i>a</i> fluorescence through independent component analysis.

ABSTRACT: Sensing rice drought stress is crucial for agriculture, and chlorophyll a fluorescence (ChlF) is often used. However, existing techniques usually rely on defined feature points on the OJIP induction curve, which ignores the rich physiological information in the entire curve. Independent Component Analysis (ICA) can effectively preserve independent features, making it suitable for capturing drought-induced physiological changes. This study applies ICA and Support Vector Machine (SVM) to classify drought levels using the entire OJIP curve. The results show that the 20-dimensional ChlF features obtained by ICA provide superior classification performance, with Accuracy, Precision, Recall, F1-score, and Kappa coefficient improving by 18.15%, 0.18
