From machine learning to transfer learning in laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy analysis of rocks for Mars exploration

Abstract With the ChemCam instrument, laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has successively contributed to Mars exploration by determining the elemental compositions of soils, crusts, and rocks. The American Perseverance rover and the Chinese Zhurong rover respectively landed on Mars on Febru...
