The prediction of landslide displacement in the Three Gorges Reservoir area is critically important for effective landslide monitoring and early warning; therefore, establishing a stable and reliable landslide displacement prediction model is essential. This study introduces a landslide displacement prediction method that integrates convolutional neural networks (CNN) with attention mechanisms. This model is validated through a case study of the Liujiabao landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir area. A comprehensively analysis of 7-year monitoring data-including rainfall, reservoir water level, and surface displacement of the landslide-is conducted. This analysis facilitates the development of a CNN-GRU-Attention deep learning combination prediction model that combines CNN, gated recurrent unit (GRU) network, and attention mechanism. The model is trained using an adaptive learning rate to enhance its generalization capabilities while mitigating the risk of overfitting. Moreover, it is compared to traditional GRU models to assess its performance. The results show that this model significantly outperforms traditional machine learning and neural network methods in terms of landslide displacement prediction accuracy. Consequently, it offers valuable insights and guidance for landslide displacement prediction in the Three Gorges Reservoir area.
