Assessment of earthquake-triggered landslide susceptibility in El Salvador based on an Artificial Neural Network model

This paper presents an approach for assessing earthquake-triggered landslide susceptibility using artificial neural networks (ANNs). The computational method used for the training process is a back-propagation learning algorithm. It is applied to El Salvador, one of the most seismically active regio...
