Previous studies of the influence of topological qualities of urban street network on the image of the city are based mainly on centrality and connectivity measures taken from graph theory. The paper suggests instead a multi-perspective approach combining graph theory and Q-analysis. Although Q-analysis shares some similarity with graph theory, it enables us to deal with a multidimensional chai...

banjarmasin is known as a tidal waterfront city and it is called city of a thousand rivers. thecity level was approximately -16 cm below the sea level and almost a swamp-land. the urbanization and the citydevelopment programs have changed the city’s physical and spatial plan from a wetland to a mainland structure. theissues of the city's transformation have changed the city structure from ...

Traffic image classification to identify the traffic density will support the traffic problems such as intelligent traffic signal control, traffic planning, etc. This paper proposes a novel traffic image classification method based on horizontal slice algorithm and histogram. The system model is designed and evaluated with the image datasets of Ho Chi Minh city, Vietnam. The best accuracy resul...

This study proposed an approach to retrieve images based on texture features using GLCM and image subblocks. Each image is divided into three rows and three columns with equal sizes. Texture features are extracted based on GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) using four statistical features that is contrast, homogeneity, energy and correlation. The features are calculated in four directions (...

Grouping images into (semantically) meaningful categories using low-level visual features is a challenging and important problem in content-based image retrieval. Based on these groupings, effective indices can be built for an image database. In this paper, we cast the image classification problem in a Bayesian framework. Specifically, we consider city vs. landscape classification and further c...
