Landscape metrics application in ecological and visual landscape assessment [PDF]
The development of landscape-ecological approach application in spatial planning provides exact theoretical and empirical evidence for monitoring ecological consequences of natural and/or anthropogenic factors, particularly changes in spatial ...

Surface metrics: an alternative to patch metrics for the quantification of landscape structure
Modern landscape ecology is based on the patch mosaic paradigm, in which landscapes are conceptualized and analyzed as mosaics of discrete patches. While this model has been widely success- ful, there are many situations where it is more meaningful to model landscape structure based on continuous rather than discrete spatial heterogeneity.

On using landscape metrics for landscape similarity search
Abstract Landscape similarity search involves finding landscapes from among a large collection that are similar to a query landscape. An example of such collection is a large land cover map subdivided into a grid of smaller local landscapes, a query is a local landscape of interest, and the task is to find other local landscapes within a map which ...

Landscape metrics as indicators of avian community structures – A state of the art review
In this state-of-the-art review, we investigate the use of landscape metrics in landscape ecology studies to predict structure of avian communities. We reviewed papers published in international peer-reviewed journals indexed by Web of Science Core, from

Trends in the use of landscape spatial metrics as landscape indicators: A review
The paper gives an overview on the trends in the usage of landscape metrics as indicators for: land use changes, habitat functions (biodiversity, habitats), landscape regulating functions (fire control, microclimate control, etc.), and information functions (landscape aesthetics).

A clarification of the nuances in the fairness metrics landscape
AbstractIn recent years, the problem of addressing fairness in machine learning (ML) and automatic decision making has attracted a lot of attention in the scientific communities dealing with artificial intelligence. A plethora of different definitions of fairness in ML have been proposed, that consider different notions of what is a “fair decision” in ...

The usual approaches to describing and understanding ecological processes in a landscape use patch-mosaic models based on traditional landscape metrics. However, they do not consider that many of these processes cannot be observed without considering the
