| Abstract: | Highlights: What are the main findings? An adaptive sampling strategy that integrates InSAR-derived information with Getis–Ord Gi-based hotspot analysis was proposed to refine the samples. A Monte Carlo-based frequency ratio analysis was proposed to address low computational efficiency and optimize conditioning factors. What are the implications of the main findings? Surface deformation information serves as an effective indicator for refining non-stable samples related to geological disasters and generating high-quality training samples for model learning. The proposed framework provides support for regional geohazard susceptibility assessment under dynamic environments. Landslide susceptibility algorithms demonstrate high reliability in quantifying the likelihood of landslide occurrence. However, traditional methods are often limited by computationally intensive sampling strategies and models with limited adaptability. In this study, we propose an adaptive sampling strategy based on hotspot analysis to enhance the reliability of the generated samples. Additionally, we develop an improved meta-ensemble (IME) stacking-based heterogeneous framework for landslide susceptibility assessment by integrating a support vector machine (SVM), random forest (RF), and XGBoost. To further reduce factor complexity, a Monte Carlo-based frequency ratio analysis is employed. The Baihetan Reservoir area along the Jinsha River was selected as the study area. A total of 26 conditioning factors were considered, supplemented by 120 Sentinel-1A images to cover the study area. The proposed sampling strategy was then used to generate high-quality samples. Finally, to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, the proposed ensemble learning framework was applied to assess landslide susceptibility with eight models using five evaluation metrics. The experimental results demonstrated that: (1) the adaptive sampling strategy improved both the quantity and quality of the training samples; (2) the adoption of the Monte Carlo strategy increased the sample partitioning rate; and (3) despite the formally highest IME metrics, the inclusion of InSAR information did not lead to a statistically significant improvement in the forecast compared to the high-quality basic sampling strategy. Overall, the proposed methodology provides valuable support for regional geohazard susceptibility assessment in dynamic environments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
