A Hybrid Framework Integrating Past Decomposable Mixing and Inverted Transformer for GNSS-Based Landslide...

Landslide displacement prediction is vital for geohazard early warning and infrastructure safety. To address the challenges of modeling nonstationary, nonlinear, and multiscale behaviors inherent in GNSS time series, this study proposes a hybrid predicting framework that integrates Past Decomposable Mixing with an inverted Transformer architecture (PDM-iTransformer). The PDM module decomposes the original sequence into multi-resolution trend and seasonal components, using structured bottom-up and top-down mixing strategies to enhance feature representation. The iTransformer then models each variable's time series independently, applying cross-variable self-attention to capture latent dependencies and using feed-forward networks to extract local dynamic features. This design enables simultaneous modeling of long-term trends and short-term fluctuations. Experimental results on GNSS monitoring data demonstrate that the proposed method significantly outperforms traditional models, with R² increased by 16.2-48.3% and RMSE and MAE reduced by up to 1.33 mm and 1.08 mm, respectively. These findings validate the framework's effectiveness and robustness in predicting landslide displacement under complex terrain conditions.
