By identifying the type of water source and analyzing the real-time changes in water composition, sudden water inrush accidents can be monitored in a timely manner to avoid major accidents. This paper proposes a novel explainable machine learning model for source type identification of mine inrush water. The paper expands the original monitoring system into the XinJi No.2 Mine in Huainan Mining Area. Based on the online water composition data, using the Spearman coefficient formula, it analyzes the water chemical characteristics of different aquifers to extract key discriminant factors. Then, the Conv1D-GRU model was built to deeply connect factors for precise water source identification. The experimental results show an accuracy rate of 85.37%. In addition, focused on the interpretability, the experiment quantified the impact of different features on the model using SHAP (Shapley Additive Explanations). It provides new reference for the source type identification of mine inrush water in mine disaster prevention and control.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/info16080648","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,30]],"date-time":"2025-07-30T07:37:23Z","timestamp":1753861043000},"page":"648","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Explainable Machine Learning Model for Source Type Identification of Mine Inrush Water"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Yong","family":"Yang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information Engineering, Xuzhou College of Industrial Technology, Xuzhou 221000, China"},{"name":"School of Information and Engineering, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7326-622X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jing","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Computer Science, Nanjing Audit University, Nanjing 211815, China"}]},{"given":"Huawei","family":"Tao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Henan Key Laboratory of Grain Storage Information Intelligent Perception and Decision Making, Henan University of Technology, Zhengzhou 450007, China"}]},{"given":"Yong","family":"Cheng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Henan Key Laboratory of Grain Storage Information Intelligent Perception and Decision Making, Henan University of Technology, Zhengzhou 450007, China"}]},{"given":"Li","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Information and Engineering, Southeast University, Nanjing 210096, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,30]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"26925","DOI":"10.1016\/j.heliyon.2024.e26925","article-title":"Groundwater chemical characteristic analysis and water source identification model study in Gubei coal mine, Northern Anhui Province, China","volume":"10","author":"Jiang","year":"2024","journal-title":"Heliyon"},{"key":"ref_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1605","DOI":"10.1007\/s12665-012-1602-6","article-title":"The Study of the Hydrogeological Setting of the Chamshir Dam Site with Special Emphasis on the Cause of Water Salinity in the Zohreh River Downstream from the Chamshir Dam (Southwest of Iran)","volume":"67","author":"Chitsazan","year":"2012","journal-title":"Environ.
