In recent years there have been important advances in the field of automatic plagiarism detection. One variant is cross-language plagiarism detection, which tries to detect plagiarism between documents in different languages. Most of the existing approaches to this task make use of statistical dictionaries to deal with the translations of words in the documents. A statistical dictionary provide...

The congestion of the city area within the walls along the 19th century and the economic and social crisis of historic centres during most of the 20th century led to their deterioration. The theoretical conceptualization and practical implementation of domestic improvement and reform programmes have changed with time. With the beginning of the new century, urban dynamics in a globalized space a...

This paper presents our submissions for the CoNLL 2017 UD Shared Task. Our parser, called UParse, is based on a neural network graph-based dependency parser. The parser uses features from a bidirectional LSTM to produce a distribution over possible heads for each word in the sentence. To allow transfer learning for lowresource treebanks and surprise languages, we train several multilingual mode...

large impervious surfaces and man-made waterways are the characteristic of urban area. increasing urbanization and rapid growth of cities in recent decades towards the upstream watershed, has been severely affected on rainfall-runoff processes in urban area. therefore, to computer models in order to illustrate these processes the proper design or assessment of urban drainage systems has special...

Cities in developing countries are facing serious problems as a result of rapid urban population growth. Not the least of these problems is the creation of environmental stresses at the rural-urban fringe of these cities as they increase in area and envelop fertile surrounding agricultural lands. Because of this rapid rate of growth, sustainable urban environmental management (SUEM) policies an...

Communities of place feature prominently in new urbanism movements and in master-planned inner-city developments that result from urban renewal. This paper’s point of departure is the stark contrast between the widespread use of mobile and ubiquitous media and communications technology by urban dwellers on the one hand and endemic forms of urban alienation and the disappearance or non-existence...

This paper overviews the Philadelphia Area Urban Wireless Network Testbed (PA-UWNT) project and several applications of artificial intelligence therein. PA-UWNT is a research and development effort in mobile and ubiquitous computing, focusing on communication and collaboration between first responders and other emergency personnel. Support systems in these environments face a number of challeng...

A modest development intensity for urban land benefits both ecological protection and living spaces improvement. It is an important indicator for urban land development intensity (ULDI) to measure the city livable and sustainable development. As an example of Chongqing Metropolitan Area, firstly, spatial database about land development intensity and its driving factors was established in sample...
