Hydrodynamic landslide displacement prediction using combined extreme learning machine and random search support vector regression model

Rubin Wang et al.

Summary: In this paper, a landslide prediction model is proposed by combining ELM and RS-SVR sub-models. The model decomposes the accumulated displacement into trend and periodic displacements and uses ELM and RS-SVR to predict these terms. Application of the model to a case study showed improved accuracy, stability, and scope of landslide displacement prediction.
