Description
Summary:To overcome critical issues in landslide susceptibility modeling, a multifactor landslide susceptibility prediction model based on deep belief networks (DBN) with optimized learning rate control (LRC-DBN) was introduced in this study. The LRC-DBN model was applied to predict landslide susceptibility in Zhidan County, Shaanxi and its performance was compared against random forest, support vector machine and logistic regression models. The results show that the LRC-DBN model achieves a maximum AUC value of 0.941, which demonstrating higher predictive performance. The interpretability of LRC-DBN reveals that the development of loess landslides is more likely in areas with elevations ranging from 894.7 m to 998.5 m, slopes ranging from 49.6° to 64°, terrain undulations spanning 31.7 m to 91.0 m, rock type T3y and terrain humidity ranging from 2.4 to 3.9. The result provides invaluable insights for local landslide prevention endeavors and can assist decision-making in urban planning.
