Evaluation of different factor assignment methods for slope unit-based landslide susceptibility assessment: a case study in Fengjie County, China by Hongjuan Yang, Shaojie Zhang, Kaiheng Hu, Yifan Jia, Xiuying Wang, Jianyang Song, Hua Tian

“…To address this issue, a machine learning-based evaluation was performed to determine optimal factor assignment methods. The analysis indicated that different factor assignment methods generated a maximum difference of 0.0133–0.0198 in the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve and a maximum difference of 2.7%–7.1% in the percentages of historical landslides that fell within high and very high susceptibility zones. …”

Entire aerial-aquatic trajectory modeling and optimization for trans-medium vehicles by Teng Long, Nianhui Ye, Baoshou Zhang, Jingliang Sun, Renhe Shi

“…Simultaneously, several constraints, i.e., the max impact load, trajectory height, etc., are involved in the optimization problem. Rather than directly optimizing by a heuristic algorithm, a multi-surrogate cooperative sampling-based optimization method is proposed to alleviate the computational complexity of the entire trajectory optimization problem. …”
