Abstract

Debris flow is a significant geological hazard in mountainous regions, threatening human life and property. This study applies the Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithm to predict debris flows in small watersheds, using Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture as a case study. Eight key factors influencing debris flows were identified to construct a dataset, with each factor’s weight calculated. Model performance, evaluated using the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC) curve, showed an AUC of 0.84, indicating strong interpretability and efficiency. The model provides valuable technical support for debris flow disaster prevention in southwestern mountainous regions.
