SAGE-XGBoost: Spatially Augmented Graph Embeddings--Machine Learning Framework for Natural Hazards Susceptibility Mapping under Data Scarcity

Natural hazard susceptibility mapping is often constrained by limited labeled data, reducing the generalizability of conventional machine learning and limiting the applicability of complex deep learning models. This study proposes SAGE (Spatially Augmented Graph Embeddings), a structurally informed feature-engineering framework that combines controlled noise-based data augmentation with neighborhood-based graph embeddings to improve prediction under data-scarce conditions.

Synergising Local Geo-Environmental Characteristics with Spatial Context for Enhancing Landslide Susceptibility Mapping

The paper introduces a Local-Geo and Spatial Context Fusion (LGSCF) strategy that combines point-based geo-environmental features with surrounding spatial context using a feature-wise modulation mechanism. Applied to nine CNN models over a 2644 km² area in Taiwan, LGSCF consistently outperforms baseline models, achieving F1-scores up to 87.09% and AUC values up to 0.9472. The resulting susceptibility maps more accurately concentrate known landslides in high-risk zones with fewer misclassifications.

Spatiotemporal Seismic Hazard Assessment Using VQ-VAE and Seismic Statistical Features

arXiv:2606. 10069v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper we build upon a previous study in which we demonstrated, using XGBoost and earthquake catalogue data from Japan and Chile, that a set of 60 seismic statistical features (SSFs) had much greater predictive value than a set of 428 generic time series features from the tsfresh package.
