Q1. What are the contributions in this paper?

He purpose of the present study is to compare the prediction performances of three different approaches such as decision tree ( DT ), support vector machine ( SVM ) and adaptive neurofuzzy inference system ( ANFIS ) for landslide susceptibility mapping at Penang Hill area, Malaysia. The study area contains 340,608 pixels while total 8403 pixels include landslides. The results of this study showed that landslide susceptibility mapping in the Penang Hill area using the three approaches ( e. g., DT, SVM and ANFIS ) is viable.
