摘要
Making accurate and effective landslide susceptibility maps (LSMs) can effectively reduce the harm of landslide disasters and provide guidance to protect people’s life and property. Choosing the appropriate modeling method is the key to establish an accurate and practical landslide susceptibility evaluation model. Therefore, in order to find the optimal modeling method, multiple mathematical statistical methods were used for landslide susceptibility mapping, and the prediction performances of the various methods were evaluated and compared. First, according to the field survey and the previous literature, 10 conditioning factors were selected as the analysis data. Second, three different bivariate statistical methods (the frequency ratio (FR), statistical index (SI), and certainty factor (CF)) were used to judge the influence of different characteristic intervals within the conditioning factors on landslide susceptibility and export the LSMs of Benzilan Town and Waka Town, in the southwest of China. The predictive precisions of the FR, SI, and CF method were 83.62%, 83.29%, and 83.55%, respectively. Third, in order to find a method with higher prediction accuracy, multi-criteria analysis methods (the analytical hierarchy process (AHP) and logistics regression (LR)) and the support vector machine (SVM) were selected to combine with bivariate statistical methods to export LSMs. A total of nine ensemble methods (AHP–FR, AHP–SI, AHP–CF, LR–FR, LR–SI, LR–CF, SVM–FR, SVM–SI, and SVM–CF) are generated. Finally, the performances of these methods were evaluated by the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC). The result shows that the AHP, LR, and SVM methods based on the bivariate statistical methods are slightly better than the single bivariate statistical methods. The combination of the SVM model and bivariate statistical methods improves the accuracy the most, and the prediction accuracy of SVM-FR is the highest among these methods. The SVM-FR method has the highest prediction precision and is the most suitable method for landslide susceptibility evaluation. © 2021, Saudi Society for Geosciences.
