Landslide hazard assessment is critical for preventing and mitigating landslide disasters. The tuning of model hyperparameters is of great importance to the accuracy and precision of one landslide hazard assessment model. In this study, Bayesian Optimization (BO) method was used to tune the hyperparameters of Support Vector Machine (SVM) model to obtain a high accuracy landslide hazard zoning map. 1711 historical landslide disaster points were obtained as landslide inventory in a case of Nanping City landslide hazard assessment. A total of 12 factors including elevation, slope, aspect, curvature, lithology, soil type, soil erosion, rainfall, river, land use, highway, and railway were selected as landslide conditional factors. The multicollinearity diagnosis was performed on factors using the Spearman correlation coe cient. 1711 landslides and 1711 non-landslides were collected as the dataset and divided into the same number of training dataset and testing dataset. The confusion matrix and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were used to verify the models. The results of confusion matrix accuracy and the area under ROC curve (AUC) showed that BO-SVM (89.53%, 97%) performed better than only SVM (84.91%, 0.93), which indicated the superiority of the proposed method during this study.
