Abstract:Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) is one of the crucial steps in managing and mitigating landslides. This study targets at developing a new LSM model for Baota District in China, using a new clustering method namely CIBD-CURE, which combines the city block distance (CIBD) and traditional clustering using representatives (CURE) algorithm. It aims at addressing limitations of inability to identify clusters (subclasses) with arbitrary shapes and varying sizes, sensitivity to noise, inability to perform well … Show more
