An object-based classification approach for mapping "migrant housing" in the mega-urban area of the Pearl River Delta (China) [PDF]
, 2011 Urban areas develop on formal and informal levels. Informal development is often highly dynamic, leading to a lag of spatial information about urban structure types.

Morphological Segmentation of Urban Structures [PDF]
2007 Urban Remote Sensing Joint Event, 2007 Automatic segmentation of high-resolution remote sensing imagery is an important problem in urban applications because the resulting segmentations can provide valuable spatial and structural information that are complementary to pixel-based spectral information in classification.

DEVELOPMENT, STRUCTURAL CHANGES AND URBANIZATION [PDF]
Journal of Development Economics, 1990 Abstract This paper constructs an equilibrium model by formalizing a trade-off between the gains from trade based on increasing returns to specialization and transaction costs. The relationship between development, structural changes, and urbanization is investigated.

Between information systems and physical structure of the city: New causes of climate changes [PDF]
Arhitektura i Urbanizam, 2011 Because of the frequent and significant spatial transformations, an increasing climate change regime in urban areas occurs. In this paper a comprehensive reflection on these changes is analyzed, concerning one of the major causes - the social ...

The Fractal Simulation of Urban Structure [PDF]
Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1986 This paper is addressed to the problem of developing realistic-looking patterns of land use and activity from predictions generated by conventional urban models. The method developed is based on a geometric model of irregularity involving hierarchical cascading and recursion, whose rationale lies in the emergent field of fractal geometry.
