摘要
This paper investigates the feasibility of Least square support vector machine (LSSVM) model to cope the problem of implicit performance function during first order second moment (FOSM) method based slope reliability analysis. LSSVM is firmly based on the theory of statistical learning. In LSSVM, Vapnik's ε -insensitive loss function has been replaced by a cost function which corresponds to a form of ridge regression. Here, LSSVM has been used as a regression technique to approximate implicit performance functions. A slope example has been presented for illustrating the applicability of LSSVM based FOSM method. The developed LSSVM based FOSM has been compared with the artificial neural network (ANN) and least square method. The result shows that the approximation of LSSVM can be used in the FOSM method for slope reliability analysis. © 2013 Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht.
