Multi-Scale Analysis of the Mitigation Effect of Green Space Morphology on Urban Heat Islands

Atmosphere
Urban green spaces (UGS) serve as critical mitigators of urban heat islands (UHIs), yet the scale-dependent mechanisms through which UGS morphology regulates thermal effects remain insufficiently understood.

Modeling of evolving textures using granulometries [PDF]

, 2006
This chapter describes a statistical approach to classification of dynamic texture images, called parallel evolution functions (PEFs). Traditional classification methods predict texture class membership using comparisons with a finite set of predefined ...

Spatial analysis for colon biopsy classification from hyperspectral imagery [PDF]

, 2008
Automatic classification of histology images, the objective of our research, is aimed at supporting the pathologists in their diagnosis. In this paper, we present a comparative study between 3D spectral/spatial analysis (SSA) and 2D spatial analysis (SA ...

Effects of urban green space morphological pattern on variation of PM2.5 concentration in the neighborhoods of five Chinese megacities

, 2019
Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) pollution is becoming a growing global problem with the rapid process of urbanization. Urban green space (UGS) can effectively alleviate PM; however, few studies have investigated the effects of the UGS morphological ...
