Application of logistic regression and artificial neural networks in spatial assessment of landslide hazards

The main purpose of this study is to analyze and compare the results of spatial assessment of landslide hazards by means of logistic regression analysis,back-propagation artificial neural network(ANN) through the use of geographic information system(GIS) techniques.A region from the Three Gorges Dam to the Badong Town,which suffered from deformation for many years,was selected as the application site of this study.Firstly,nine evaluation factors were selected,including topographic slope,topograp...
