Abstract
and model-based interpretation approaches of machine learning are integrated to provide complementary advantages and may yield more illuminating or trustworthy results for researchers or policymakers. The concentration, size, and zeta potential of nanoparticles are identified as dominant factors for correlating root dry weight under salinity stress, and their effects and interactions are explained. Additionally, a web-based interactive tool is developed for offering prediction-level interpretation and gathering more details about a specific nanopriming treatment. This work offers a promising framework for accelerating the agricultural applications of nanomaterials and may contribute to nanosafety assessment.
