Abstract
Landslides are geohazards of major concern that can cause casualties and property damage. Short-term landslide displacement prediction is one of the most critical and challenging tasks in landslide deformation analysis, and is beneficial for future hazard mitigation. In this research, a novel short-term displacement prediction approach using spatial-temporal correlation and a gated recurrent unit (GRU) is proposed. The proposed approach is a unified framework that integrates time-series instant displacements collected from multiple monitoring points on a failing slope. First, a spatial-temporal correlation matrix, including the pairwise Pearson’s correlation coefficients, was studied based on the temporal instant displacement data. Then, the extracted spatial features were integrated into the time-series prediction model using GRU. This approach combines both spatial and temporal features simultaneously and provides enhanced prediction performance. In the last step, a comparative analysis against other benchmark algorithms is performed in two case studies including the conventional time-series modeling approach and the spatial-temporal modeling approach. The computational results show that the proposed model performs best in terms of performance evaluation metrics.
Introduction
In mountainous regions, widely distributed landslides are a commonly observed phenomenon that threatens local people’s lives and properties (Zhou et al., 2021a; Zhou et al., 2021b; Zhou et al., 2022). Monitoring landslide displacement time series can directly reflect landslide deformation and slope stability (Gao and Meguid, 2018; Gao et al., 2021; Li et al., 2022). The prediction of landslide displacement is considered an essential part of an operational early warning system for future landslides. Thus, accurate and effective predictions of future displacements are valuable (Wang et al., 2020).
Existing studies on landslide displacement prediction can be roughly classified into three categories: physics models, statistical models, and artificial intelligence models (Gao and Meguid, 2021). According to the literature review, physics models were developed based on creep theory and validated via large-scale laboratory experiments. During this process, the physical parameters were estimated and monitored to forecast the incoming landslide displacements (Yang et al., 2019). Helmstetter et al. (2004) utilized a slider block friction model to analyze landslide displacement and velocity data. Corominas et al. (2005) developed a momentum equation in which a viscous term was added to predict the landslide displacements and velocities in water-triggered landslides. Mufundirwa et al. (2010) proposed an empirical physics model to forecast the failure time of landslides based on slope gradient and performed laboratory experiments for validation. Thiebes et al. (2014) proposed a physics-based model that combined hydrology and stability to provide an early warning for landslide occurrence. All physics-based models can provide clear physical explanations of landslides, but the implementation of sufficiently accurate models can be complex, time-consuming, and expensive.
On the other hand, statistical models are designed to discover statistical regularities or patterns in massive observed data points (Gao et al., 2020). Xu et al. (2011) constructed an autoregressive time-series model to fit temporal patterns in a landslide displacement dataset. Krkač et al. (2017) used a random forest regression model to forecast incoming landslide displacements. Zhao et al. (2018) optimized classification and regression trees to predict future landslide movements. Kavoura et al. (2020) used the Verhulst inverse function and residual correction to enhance the autoregressive integrated moving average (ARIMA) model for displacement time-series prediction. All statistical models investigate and extract statistical properties in the temporal domain, and construct corresponding models to forecast future displacement values. Promising results were obtained using statistical models fitted to the landslide displacement series.
Advances and applications of artificial intelligence (AI) have provided new ideas for landslide displacement prediction. Lian et al. (2015) initially applied an artificial neural network (ANN) to construct forecasting models for landslide displacement time-series datasets. Zhou et al. (2016) used the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm to optimize the hyperparameter setting of a support vector machine (SVM) to further improve the prediction accuracy of the prediction model to forecast future displacements. Case studies of water-triggered landslides located in the Three Gorges Reservoir, China confirmed the validity of the proposed approach for field practice. Cao et al. (2016) introduced a single hidden layer feedforward (SHLF) neural network structure, the extreme learning machine (ELM), to predict landslide displacement series. Compared with conventional ANN, ELM is computationally effective and more reliable in terms of prediction performance. Li et al. (2018) incorporated the power of ELM with parametric copula models to study the patterns of seasonal step-like landslide displacements. Heavy precipitation and reservoir water level fluctuation are correlated with seasonal faster motion of slope failure, and thus are suggested to be utilized as input factors for modeling displacement time series. Li et al. (2020) trained a deep belief network (DBN) as a regression algorithm to forecast landslide displacement in the Three Gorges Reservoir, China. Exponential weighted moving average (EWMA) control charts were introduced as thresholds to classify between hazardous seasonal and faster seasonal displacements. The above work confirms the superior power of AI technologies in landslide displacement prediction tasks.
All studies cited above performed autoregressive time-series prediction of future landslide instant displacement. Their work considered the displacement data measured from a single point as a single autoregressive time series, but received no impact from outside factors. However, in practice, a landslide event with slope failure is a super-complex system that cannot be represented by a single time series. Multiple displacement time-series datasets vary owing to the different measurement locations on the slope. Intuitively, this refers to the different extents of deformation in various parts of the landslide region.
To overcome this limitation, in this study, we propose a novel spatial-temporal prediction framework for landslide displacement modeling. Instead of using a single measured displacement series, multiple displacement series from adjacent monitoring locations on the same slope were considered. A spatial-temporal correlation matrix was computed and applied as an input in the prediction model to estimate future displacement. The gated recurrent unit (GRU) algorithm was selected as the regression algorithm for the prediction tasks as it extracts both spatial and temporal features effectively (Minh et al., 2018; Becerra-Rico et al., 2020; Dutta et al., 2020; Bonassi et al., 2021; ur Rehman et al., 2021).
The major contributions of this study can be summarized as follows. First, it proposes a novel displacement prediction approach using spatial-temporal correlation from a dataset collected from multiple sensors. Second, GRU was trained as a time-series forecasting algorithm to perform short-term displacement forecasting.
The remainder of the manuscript is organized as follows: Case Study Region introduces the case study area and describes the landslide displacement data collection process. Prediction Methodology provides details about the spatial-temporal modeling process and the GRU model. Experimental Results presents the computational outcomes, and Conclusion concludes the study’s findings.
Case Study Region
Our case study area, the Zhangjiawan landslide, is located in Pengjia Village, Chengxi County, central Qinghai Province, China. The slide is located at latitude 101°38′59″ and longitude 36°38′25″. The landslide event threatens the state road which passes through the front of the landslide. In total, more than 2000 residents live in the surrounding area. An overview of the Zhangjiawan landslide is shown in Figure 1.
FIGURE 1
As illustrated in Figure 1, the Zhangjiawan landslide is a colluvial landslide in which the slide body materials contain sandstone and mudstone interbeds. The entire landslide area is approximately 1,600 m long and 900 m wide. Meanwhile, the total area is approximately 1.26 km2. In total, 12 deformation monitoring (DB) points (see Figure 1) were configured by field engineers on the sliding region. All points are installed with global positioning system (GPS) in order to monitor the deformation process in real time from late July 2020. They collected daily instant displacement values in millimeters until the current time.
Prediction Methodology
Spatial-Temporal Sequence Modeling
Geographical scale is a critical component for discussing the spatial correlation of landslide displacement prediction tasks (Vega Orozco et al., 2012; Pathak et al., 2021; Li, 2022b). A large geographical scale is usually preferred in practice when the landslide is large scale. Thus, in this study, the geographical scale was set according to the boundaries of deformation (red line in Figure 1), and all monitoring points were included in the scale for prediction.
In our case study area, the relationship between the faster-moving part and the slower moving part is often not simple, owing to time delay, slope instability, and sliding materials. Moreover, various sliding directions exist for all GPS monitoring points. Therefore, it is challenging to analyze the displacement at a single point and use the obtained results to estimate the entire slope deformation process. Spatial-temporal correlation can offer a reliable solution for landslide displacement prediction based on multiple monitored time-series data.
In this study, a total of 12 GPS points that monitor displacement were considered for spatial-temporal correlation modeling. We support all points represented by a 12 × 12 matrix consisting of 12 rows and 12 columns. The location of each GPS point can be described by two-dimensional coordinates (i, j), where i denotes the row number, and j denotes the column number expressed in (1) as follows:where denotes the Pearson’s correlation coefficient of the displacement series between GPS points i and j at time t. Then, the prediction model can be described as (2):where denotes the probability function, is the target correlation matrix that is our prediction target, and to represent the observed correlation coefficient matrix in the historic timestamp. Once is computed, the prediction model integrates the values with the autoregression model to forecast the short-term displacement.
Gated Recurrent Unit
To strengthen the prediction power of the proposed spatial-temporal approach, GRU was applied as the regression algorithm in this study (Ravanelli et al., 2018). A GRU unit has similar architecture in comparison with a long short-term memory (LSTM) unit (Minh et al., 2018). They both have gates to extract temporal patterns from the dataset and pass relevant information for prediction making process. In comparison with LSTM, GRU does not have a forget gate or cell state (Li, 2022a). Consequently, GRU requires less memory and is more computationally effective than LSTM.
The GRU computation steps can be expressed by (3)–(5) below:where denotes the output from the previous step, denotes the current input, and the final cell state is the weighted summation of the previous cell state and possible update value . The weight can be computed using (5) below:where denotes the sigmoid function and determines the value of the current cell state, . The process expressed in (5) is similar to the forget gate in LSTM, which transmits information from the previous unit to the next.
Training Strategy
The training strategy utilized in this study is the same approach used for training the LSTM-RNN in time-series tasks by other researchers. The size of the time window considers both the seasonality patterns and autocorrelation between the current and historic displacements. In total, almost 2 years of GPS-recorded daily displacement data in millimeters were utilized as the training and test datasets.
Within the dataset, the first 80% of the prepared dataset was used to train and validate the GRU model, and the remaining 20% was reserved as a held-out testing sample. In each training experiment, 10% of the training samples were further split for validation during the training process. To ensure the optimal parameter setting of the GRU, a grid search approach was applied to seek the best combination of hyperparameters via cross-validation. The loss function for training the GRU is the mean squared error loss which will be introduced in Performance Evaluation Metrics.
Benchmark Models
To demonstrate the superior power of the proposed GRU, three other benchmark time-series prediction algorithms were selected as benchmark algorithms for comparative analysis. These algorithms are also popular in landslide displacement prediction. They include kernel extreme learning machine (KELM), ANN, and LSTM-RNN.
KELM is an improved version of the original ELM. Similar to ELM, which is computationally efficient and robust, KELM proposes using a kernel function to enhance the generalization capacity and reduce possible overfitting issues (Iosifidis et al., 2015; He and Kusiak, 2017). Among the multiple kernel options, the most popular choices include the linear kernel, polynomial kernel, radial basis function (RBF) kernel, or exponential kernel. In this study, we consider the three most typical kernel functions, namely, the RBF kernel, hyperbolic tangent kernel, and wavelet kernel, for possible options in fitting displacement time series.
ANN is one of the most widely used machine-learning algorithms in both regression and classification tasks (Li et al., 2021a; Li et al., 2021b). It has a feedforward neural network architecture and involves three major components: the input, hidden, and output layers. By adaptively adjusting the weights and bias, meaningful features that are relevant to the target output can be extracted from the dataset.
LSTM is a special type of recurrent neural network with the capacity to remember values from the earlier stages (Gers et al., 2002; Greff et al., 2016). Each LSTM unit contains a set of cells in which data streams are captured and stored. The assembly of the cells results in an information transportation line that conveys data from the past and gathers them for the present timestamp. The memorization of earlier values assists in identifying both the trend and seasonality within the time-series dataset.
The hyperparameters that require tuning for the proposed GRU and other benchmark models are summarized in Table 1. KELM has two major hyperparameters: the selection of the kernel function and the number of hidden neurons within a single hidden layer. ANN has two hyperparameters that require tuning: the number of hidden layers and the number of hidden neurons inside the hidden layer. LSTM has the number of hidden nodes, learning rate, and sliding window steps as hyperparameters. GRU has the same hyperparameters that require tuning during the cross-validation process.

Summary of the hyperparameters of the algorithms tested.
Performance Evaluation Metrics
To evaluate the performance of the landslide displacement models, three evaluation metrics, namely, mean squared error (MSE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), and predictive R-squared (R2), were selected in this study. MSE computes the squared error between the predicted and actual displacements. It is also utilized as a loss function for training all the algorithms. MAPE computes the average percentage error between the predicted and actual measured displacements. R2 determines how well the predicted displacements fit the actual displacement from a distribution perspective. Intuitively, it quantifies the percentage of variance within the test dataset explained by the prediction model. The formulas for computing these two metrics are summarized in Table 2.

Experimental Results
To predict the future displacement following the proposed approach, the spatial-temporal correlation is the foundation for the development of the prediction model. Following the methods introduced in Spatial-Temporal Sequence Modeling, we computed the average Pearson’s correlation coefficient in a pairwise manner for all 12 GPS points. The correlation coefficients ranged between -1 and 1. The computational results are displayed in Figure 2.
FIGURE 2
As shown in Figure 2, the spatial-temporal matrix containing correlation coefficients among the displacement time series in all GPS points differs from each other. The range varies between -1 and 1, where a positive value indicates a positive correlation and a negative value indicates the opposite scenario. All diagonal values in the spatial-temporal correlation matrix are 1, which represents a super positive correlation between the measured displacements and themselves. Furthermore, because it measures pairwise correlation, the entire spatial-temporal matrix is symmetric along the diagonal line. For the intra-GPS correlations, we applied a threshold of 0.5 to determine if the displacements measured in the neighborhood region are a valuable input for the prediction model. Thus, only a few neighboring displacements were considered in this study.
To train the proposed GRU model, the MSE loss was selected as the loss function, and the Adam optimizer was used to optimize the parameter settings within the GRU. The training process is illustrated in Figure 3. In total, 100 epochs were tested during the training and validation steps. It can be observed that the training loss is constantly reduced and converges around the 40th epoch. Meanwhile, the validation loss is significantly reduced before the 40th epoch but then starts to increase slowly. This phenomenon is a clear indication of overfitting after epoch 40. Thus, we extracted the weights at epoch 40 as our optimal model for displacement prediction.
FIGURE 3
Figure 4 shows the predicted displacement versus the actual displacement within the reserved independent test dataset. For a fair comparison, we scaled all predictions and actual measured displacements between 0 and 1. The central diagonal dashed line denotes perfect prediction, which means that the predicted displacement values are exactly the same as the actual values for the displacement. The scattered points around the dashed line represent the predicted outcomes of the GRU algorithm. For our six case study GPS points, it can be observed that the majority of the points are scattered in the close neighborhood region of the dashed diagonal line. This indicates that the error between the prediction and actual measurement was within a small range, which confirms the accuracy of the prediction model. The quantitative prediction performance for all the algorithms tested is summarized in Table 3.

Summary of prediction performance in all GPS points tested.
Furthermore, we compared the spatial-temporal modeling approach with the conventional time-series autoregression modeling approach. Here, the case number corresponds to the GPS point number. Unlike the spatial-temporal modeling approach, the conventional time-series approach only considers self-autocorrelation in the temporal domain for a single GPS-collected displacement series. The displacements collected from neighboring GPS points were not considered in the prediction model. As illustrated in Figure 5, the distributions of the absolute error from both the spatial-temporal and time-series approaches were compared at six selected GPS monitoring sites. All absolute errors compute the absolute difference between the predicted and actual values, and are then scaled between 0 and 1.
FIGURE 5
As shown in Figure 5, the scaled absolute errors for both modeling approaches are skewed to the right with a long fat tail on the right-hand side. Same as Figure 4, the case numbers above refer to the same GPS number in our dataset. In the comparison between the two modeling approaches, the spatial-temporal approach is further skewed to the right with smaller mean and median values. This can be attributed to the spatial-temporal correlation among neighboring GPS points considered in the input of the proposed GRU model, whereas the conventional time-series model considers only autocorrelation and seasonality within a single GPS point. This confirms the outperformance of applying the spatial-temporal modeling approach in predicting landslide displacement.
Conclusion
In this study, we explored the possibility of using spatial-temporal correlation to enhance the prediction performance of landslide displacement at slope failure locations. GRU was applied as a time-series prediction algorithm to generate future landslide displacement. Comparative analysis against other benchmark algorithms, such as KELM, ANN, and LSTM-RNN, was performed in case studies for both traditional time-series forecasting and spatial-temporal forecasting. The experimental results support the conclusion that superior performance is achieved with the GRU and spatial-temporal modeling approach in the short-term landslide displacement prediction task. The utilization of the proposed approach can benefit field engineers in their landslide geohazard estimation tasks.
