Abstract: | The hazard of landslides has been demonstrated over time with numerous events causing damage to human lives and high material costs. Several previous studies have shown that one of the predominant factors in landslides is intensive rainfall. The present work proposes the use of data generated by weather stations to predict landslides. We give special treatment to precipitation information as the most influential factor and whose data are accumulated in time windows (3, 5, 7, 10, 15, 20, and 30 days) looking for the persistence of meteorological conditions. To optimize the dataset composed of geological, geomorphological, and climatological data, a feature selection process is applied to the meteorological variables. We use filter-based feature ranking and Self-Organizing Map (SOM) with Clustering as supervised and unsupervised machine learning techniques, respectively. This contribution was successfully verified by experimenting with different classification models, improving the test accuracy of the prediction, and obtaining 99.29% for Multilayer Perceptron, 96.80% for Random Forest, and 88.79% for Support Vector Machine. To validate the proposal, a geographical area sensitive to this phenomenon was selected, which is monitored by several meteorological stations. Practical use is a valuable tool for risk management decision making, can help save lives and reduce economic losses. |
