E1. Compute the following terrain attributes from the `elev` dataset loaded with `terra::rast(system.file("raster/ta.tif", package = "spDataLarge"))$elev` with the help of R-GIS bridges (see the bridges to GIS software chapter):

  - Slope
  - Plan curvature
  - Profile curvature
  - Catchment area
    
```{r 12-ex-e1-1, eval=FALSE}
# attach data
dem = terra::rast(system.file("raster/ta.tif", package = "spDataLarge"))$elev

algs = qgisprocess::qgis_algorithms()
qgis_search_algorithms("curvature")
alg = "sagang:slopeaspectcurvature"
qgisprocess::qgis_show_help(alg)
qgisprocess::qgis_get_argument_specs(alg)
# terrain attributes (ta)
out_nms = paste0(tempdir(), "/", c("slope", "cplan", "cprof"),
                 ".sdat")
args = rlang::set_names(out_nms, c("SLOPE", "C_PLAN", "C_PROF"))
out = qgis_run_algorithm(alg, ELEVATION = dem, METHOD = 6, 
                         UNIT_SLOPE = "[1] degree",
                         !!!args,
                         .quiet = TRUE
                         )
ta = out[names(args)] |> unlist() |> terra::rast()
names(ta) = c("slope", "cplan", "cprof")
# catchment area
qgis_search_algorithms("[Cc]atchment")
alg = "sagang:catchmentarea"
qgis_show_help(alg)
qgis_get_argument_specs(alg)
carea = qgis_run_algorithm(alg,
                           ELEVATION = dem, 
                           METHOD = 4, 
                           FLOW = file.path(tempdir(), "carea.sdat"))
# transform carea
carea = terra::rast(carea$FLOW[1])
log10_carea = log10(carea)
names(log10_carea) = "log10_carea"
# add log_carea and dem to the terrain attributes
ta = c(ta, dem, log10_carea)
```

E2. Extract the values from the corresponding output rasters to the `lsl` data frame (`data("lsl", package = "spDataLarge"`) by adding new variables called `slope`, `cplan`, `cprof`, `elev` and `log_carea`.

```{r 12-ex-e2, eval=FALSE}
# attach terrain attribute raster stack (in case you have skipped the previous
# exercise)
data("lsl", package = "spDataLarge")
ta = terra::rast(system.file("raster/ta.tif", package = "spDataLarge"))
lsl = select(lsl, x, y, lslpts)
# extract values to points, i.e., create predictors
lsl[, names(ta)] = terra::extract(ta, lsl[, c("x", "y")]) |>
  select(-ID)
```

E3. Use the derived terrain attribute rasters in combination with a GLM to make a spatial prediction map similar to that shown in Figure 12.2.
Running `data("study_mask", package = "spDataLarge")` attaches a mask of the study area.

```{r 12-ex-e3, eval=FALSE}
# attach data (in case you have skipped exercises 1) and 2)
# landslide points with terrain attributes and terrain attribute raster stack
data("lsl", "study_mask", package = "spDataLarge")
ta = terra::rast(system.file("raster/ta.tif", package = "spDataLarge"))

# fit the model
fit = glm(lslpts ~ slope + cplan + cprof + elev + log10_carea, 
          data = lsl, family = binomial())

# make the prediction
pred = terra::predict(object = ta, model = fit, type = "response")

# make the map
lsl_sf = sf::st_as_sf(lsl, coords = c("x", "y"), crs = 32717)
lsl_sf = sf::st_as_sf(lsl, coords = c("x", "y"), crs = 32717)
hs = terra::shade(ta$slope * pi / 180,
                  terra::terrain(ta$elev, v = "aspect", unit = "radians"))
rect = tmaptools::bb_poly(raster::raster(hs))
bbx = tmaptools::bb(raster::raster(hs), xlim = c(-0.00001, 1),
                    ylim = c(-0.00001, 1), relative = TRUE)

tm_shape(terra::mask(hs, study_mask), bbox = bbx) +
  tm_grid(col = "black", n.x = 1, n.y = 1, labels.inside.frame = FALSE,
          labels.rot = c(0, 90), lines = FALSE) +
	tm_raster(col.scale = tm_scale(values = gray(0:100 / 100), n = 100),
            col.legend = tm_legend_hide()) +
	# prediction raster
  tm_shape(terra::mask(pred, study_mask)) +
	tm_raster(col_alpha = 0.5,
            col.scale = tm_scale(values = "Reds", n = 6),
            col.legend = tm_legend(title = "Susceptibility")) +
	# rectangle and outer margins
  tm_shape(rect) + 
  tm_borders() +
	tm_layout(legend.position = c("left", "bottom"),
	          legend.title.size = 0.9)
```

E4. Compute a 100-repeated 5-fold non-spatial cross-validation and spatial CV based on the GLM learner and compare the AUROC values from both resampling strategies with the help of boxplots.

Hint: You need to specify a non-spatial resampling strategy.

Another hint: You might want to solve Excercises 4 to 6 in one go with the help of `mlr3::benchmark()` and `mlr3::benchmark_grid()` (for more information, please refer to https://mlr3book.mlr-org.com/chapters/chapter10/advanced_technical_aspects_of_mlr3.html#sec-fallback).
When doing so, keep in mind that the computation can take very long, probably several days.
This, of course, depends on your system.
Computation time will be shorter the more RAM and cores you have at your disposal.

E5. Model landslide susceptibility using a quadratic discriminant analysis (QDA).
Assess the predictive performance of the QDA. 
What is the a difference between the spatially cross-validated mean AUROC value of the QDA and the GLM?

```{r 12-ex-e5, eval=FALSE}
# attach data (in case you have skipped exercise 4)
bmr = readRDS("extdata/12-bmr.rds")

# plot your result
autoplot(bmr, measure = msr("classif.auc"))
# QDA has higher AUROC values on average than GLM which indicates moderately
# non-linear boundaries
```

E6. Run the SVM without tuning the hyperparameters.
Use the `rbfdot` kernel with $\sigma$ = 1 and *C* = 1. 
Leaving the hyperparameters unspecified in **kernlab**'s `ksvm()` would otherwise initialize an automatic non-spatial hyperparameter tuning.

```{r 12-ex-e6, eval=FALSE}
# attach data (in case you have skipped exercise 4)
bmr = readRDS("extdata/12-bmr.rds")
# plot your result
autoplot(bmr, measure = msr("classif.auc"))
```
