| Abstract | The main aim of this paper is to develop a new hybrid method to assess landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) in neighboring provinces of Alborz Mountains in Iran. In the last centuries, this region has experienced a large number of landslides due to its location on earthquake belt, with high precipitation in some parts and having varied topography. Besides, the largest city of Iran (Tehran), a lot of important infrastructures, congested roads and a large population are located in this region. Therefore, determining the spatial outlines of the regions which are prone to future landslides is a critical issue. To reach this goal, the LSM is provided by applying a hybrid model of statistical index (Wi) and adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) in a Geographic Information System. In the first step, landslide inventory map was divided into two groups randomly. These groups are training dataset including 70 % recorded landslides and the remaining 30 % was used to test the model output. The first and second groups are used to determine the weights in model and validation of results, respectively. Then, 12 landslide conditioning factors are selected and categorized into two groups which are continuous numerical and nominal. After that, each factor is classified and the weight of each class is determined using Wi. The outputs of Wi and Wi-ANFIS were employed to determine nominal and continuous numerical data, respectively. In the Wi-ANFIS approach, the calculated weights of each class is allocated to the center of each class, and the rest weights of values are determined by ANFIS which is an artificial algorithm using training data (in this paper, the weights were calculated by Wi) in terms of predicting and interpolating. The results are evaluated using receiver operation curves including success rate curve and predicted rate curve. The validation results of the proposed hybrid method shows that the area under the curve of success rate curve and predicted rate curve are 0.90 and 0.89, respectively, which have been improved in comparison with Wi. The results pr oved that the suggested model applied in this study generated reliable LSM which can be applicable for primary land use planning and infrastructure site selection. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
