Integrating NoSQL, Hilbert Curve, and R*-Tree to Efficiently Manage Mobile LiDAR Point Cloud Data
The widespread use of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) technology has led to a surge in three-dimensional point cloud data; although, it also poses challenges in terms of data storage and indexing. Efficient storage and management of LiDAR data are prerequisites for data processing and analysis for various LiDAR-based scientific applications. Traditional relational database management systems and centralized file storage struggle to meet the s…
Non-Uniform Spatial Partitions and Optimized Trajectory Segments for Storage and Indexing of Massive GPS Trajectory Data
The presence of abundant spatio-temporal information based on the location of mobile objects in publicly accessible GPS mobile devices makes it crucial to collect, analyze, and mine such information. Therefore, it is necessary to index a large volume of trajectory data to facilitate efficient trajectory retrieval and access. It is difficult for existing indexing methods that primarily rely on data-driven indexing structures (such as R-Tree) or sp…
Impacts of land use/cover change on carbon storage in the Yangtze River Delta region from a complex network perspective
The academic discipline of history of education in China
From the beginning of the twentieth century to the present, the development of the history of education in China can be divided into four stages: a budding period, one of tortuous development, a recovery stage and finally one of stable growth influenced by various ideas and themes from other countries. Abundant academic areas and topics as well as a diversity of research methods have shaped this discipline and borne remarkable academic fruit whil…
An urban-scale method for building roofs available wind resource evaluation based on aerodynamic parameters of urban sublayer surfaces
Migrant Inflows and Online Expressions of Regional Prejudice in China
China started market-oriented reforms in the late 1970s, and a fundamental social change in post-reform China has been massive migration. The primary purpose of this research is to examine the effect of migrant inflows on online expressions of regional prejudice, which is defined as expressions of antipathy toward migrants. In particular, we examine the dynamics of expressions of regional prejudice on Weibo, a popular Twitter-like social media si…
Fine-Grained Spatiotemporal Analysis of the Impact of Restricting Factories, Motor Vehicles, and Fireworks on Air Pollution
Aiming at improving the air quality and protecting public health, policies such as restricting factories, motor vehicles, and fireworks have been widely implemented. However, fine-grained spatiotemporal analysis of these policies' effectiveness is lacking. This paper collected the hourly meteorological and PM 2.5 data for three typical emission scenarios in Hubei, Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei (BTH), and Yangtze River Delta (YRD). Then, this study simula…
PM2.5 Prediction with a Novel Multi-Step-Ahead Forecasting Model Based on Dynamic Wind Field Distance
Particulate matter with a diameter of less than 2.5 μ m (PM2.5) has damaged public health globally for a decade. Accurate forecasts of PM2.5 concentration can provide early warnings to prevent the public from hazard exposure. However, existing methods have not considered the available spatiotemporal data sufficiently due to their architecture or inadequate input, and most neglected wind impact on spatiotemporal correlation when selecting related …
Understanding the Field of Public Affairs through the Lens of Ranked Ph.D. Programs in the United States
The goal of this article is to understand the multidisciplinary field of public affairs. Based on data and text mining on the profiles and publications of all faculty members from a list of research‐oriented U.S. public affairs programs, we describe the landscape of public affairs schools and scholars, identify 15 topics in public affairs research and discuss their trends of change between 1986 and 2015, and show the clustering and hiring network…

Student Attitudes towards Teaching Methods Used in Universities the UK
This study was in the context of exploring effective teaching and learning in the British higher education system from a student’s perspective. To explore the differences in level of knowledge of UK teaching methods between three subgroups of students and their attitudes towards those methods; to examine whether or not there is a relationship between students’ knowledge about those teaching methods and their attitudes towards them. Twenty partici…

Simulating Emergent Urban Form Using Agent-Based Modeling
We propose that the emergent phenomenon know as “desakota,” the rapid urbanization of densely populated rural populations in the newly developed world, particularly China, can be simulated using agent-based models that combine bottom-up actions with global interactions. We argue that desakota represents a surprising and unusual form of urbanization well-matched to processes of land development that are locally determined but moderated by the high…
