This paper presents a comparison between two methodologies for the evaluation of slope instability and the production of instability maps, using a probabilistic approach and a hybrid possibilistic and credibilistic approach. The first is the Certainty Factor method, and the second is based on Fuzzy Logic integrated with the Dempster–Shafer theory. These methodologies are applied to the 1 : 50,000 scale Fabriano (Marche, Italy) geological map sheet. The results are represented as histograms where the accuracy of the prediction is shown, and the comparison of the results of the methods is discussed.

Abstract

This paper presents a comparison between two methodologies for the evaluation of slope instability and the production of instability maps, using a probabilistic approach and a hybrid possibilistic and credibilistic approach. The first is the Certainty Factor method, and the second is based on Fuzzy Logic integrated with the Dempster–Shafer theory. These methodologies are applied to the 1 : 50,000 scale Fabriano (Marche, Italy) geological map sheet. The results are represented as histograms where the accuracy of the prediction is shown, and the comparison of the results of the methods is discussed.
