The Application of Stepwise-Discriminant-Analysis Oriented FCM Method in Debris Flow Classification

In recent years, the increasing Debris flow has been drawing the geologists' attention for its massive destructive force. At present, the research on the debris flow are mainly based on comprehensive multi-factors evaluation or singlue factor qualitative anlalysis. However, all factors have the impact on the debris flow. At present, the research on the factors that foundamentally affecting the debris flow or its character is quite few. This paper use the method of stepwise discriminant analysis to minimize the correlation and repeatability between factors to ensure the selected factor can be fully represent the character of debris flow. In addition, classification is an important way to illustrate general picture of the debris flow. This paper classified the selected 6 key factors by method of FCM (Fussy C Means) to achieve the transition and evolution from general geological classification to the accurate quantitative analysis. The result of such classification will benefit the debris flow cognition and disaster prevention measures.
