In recent years many post-industrial cities have implemented ambitious reimaging strategies to appeal to a variety of external audiences. This paper identifies a conceptual framework within which the effects of these initiatives on tourists’ images can be understood. The framework contends that re-imaging can affect different city image components through the connotations and synecdochical imag...

Da Nang city is considered a worth living and visiting for the past few years, however, not all domestic tourists have ever visited Nang. The purpose of this study was to analyze: effect electronic word mouth, destination social responsibility, image, trust on intention visit city, by interviewing 280 in HoChiMinh who had never city. This uses Structural Equation Model (SEM) analysis as data to...

This paper describes IBCOW (Image-based Classi cation of Objectionable Websites), a system capable of classifying a website as objectionable or benign based on image content. The system uses WIPETM (Wavelet Image Pornography Elimination) and statistics to provide robust classi cation of on-line objectionable World Wide Web sites. Semantically-meaningful feature vector matching is carried out so...

ABSTRACT: With the development of 3D city model and 3D Geographic Information Systems (GIS), the models of buildings provide many applications like urban planning, disaster assessment, virtual visualization, and others. For city models production, aerial images and photogrammetry are definitely important data source and technology for building reconstruction, since rich geometric and semantic i...

For most sub-Saharan African (SSA) cities, in order to control the historically unplanned urban growth and stimulate sustainable future urban development, there is a need for accurate identification of the past and present urban land use (ULU). However, studies addressing ULU classification in SSA cities are lacking. In this study, we developed an integrated approach of remote sensing and Geogr...

In this paper a framework for deriving highlevel scene attributes from low-level image features is presented. Examples of attributes derived are photo-painting, indoor-outdoor, night-day and nature-city. The assignment of the attributes to images is done by a hierarchical classification of the low level features, which capture colour, texture and spatial information. A prototype for image class...

This paper presents a developing project applying image processing algorithms and human behaviour techniques to study pedestrian-vehicle conflicts. Real data will be obtained from two zebra crossings in the city of Salamanca (Spain). Results will be a set of measurable parameters influencing the conflicts. Image processing techniques allow us to manage huge and real information data. One overvi...

Mega sports events play an important role in the development of host city. This study examined relationship between event prestige, city image, place attachment, and involvement intention community. Data were obtained using questionnaires distributed to college students Chengdu, China 2022, when it was World University Games.
