ROAD: Reality Oriented Adaptation for Semantic Segmentation of Urban Scenes
, 2018 Exploiting synthetic data to learn deep models has attracted increasing attention in recent years. However, the intrinsic domain difference between synthetic and real images usually causes a significant performance drop when applying the learned model to

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In Australia, governments fund Community Legal Centres (CLCs) as part of the legal assistance sector (LAS) to meet the ‘legal needs’ of people experiencing disadvantage who cannot afford private legal services. Persistent unmet demand for CLCs is well‐documented. As artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly used in private legal practice to

The village and the city: a diagnostic study of the spatial embedding patterns in villages absorbed by cities in Bahrain [PDF]
, 2009 During the growth of cities villages are frequently absorbed into the fabric of that conurbation. But what are the consequences of this? To what extent and how well do these villages become part of the overall fabric of the city?

Selective Sequestration of Toxic NOx Gases by P‐Doped Graphene: A Density Functional Theory Study
Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.P‐doped graphene (P‐grap) is explored as an NOx sensor through DFT simulations. The analysis of its geometry, binding energies, electronic properties, and atom‐in‐molecule characteristics demonstrates that P‐grap is a selective sensor for NOx among a mixture of various gases.

Urban spatial structure and economic growth in Spanish metropolitan areas [PDF]
, 2011 There is a large literature on the existence of agglomeration economies, as shown in the surveys by Moomaw (1983) or Gerking (1993). The benefits of these economies arise from multiple sources, but some negative externalities might also emerge.

The power of creativity and the power of the city - the functioning of labour markets and its role for urban location in the restructuring of German advertising [PDF]
Urban socio-economic theory today strongly focuses on the role of labour markets in shaping the structure of the urban economy and society. Particularly the strong polarisation of the urban society is often explained through the polarised structure of ...
