Abstract

Under the background of wide application of big data, technological breakthrough of artificial intelligence and transformation and innovation of urban planning, this paper, based on the three aspects of theoretical basis, data sources, and technical methods, aims to build a new cognitive method of city image based on the combination of city image theory, big data and deep learning, which depicts the city image in depth from the three dimensions of structure, type and evaluation. This paper makes an empirical research on the city image cognition of Chongqing by using Weibo data, Microsoft computer vision and Boson NLP platform, and concludes some problems in the city image of Chongqing, such as the loss of natural landscape, the lack of human elements and the needs to be optimized of the city image structure, which prove the validity and scientificity of the method.

气味景观

Abstract

Street space is the most fundamental aspect of human‘s perception of u rban space. Urban smellscape is also one of the most important measurements of street quality.Nevertheless, most urban studies have ove rlooked smellscape fo r several reasons,one of which is that sme]I is difficult to record and analyze.This paper explores the possibility of combining smellwalking with social media data analysis for classifying city scents and mapping the smellscape of Beijing old 义的场所,并让人记住这个地方,但城市研究和设计中往往会忽视这一点,这就部分导致了城市规划的均质化以及由于缺乏地方性特征而带来的疏离感01。比如有学者指出,随着全球化发展,典型的英国小镇或城市已成为“克隆”城镇:“将有个性的商店取而代之的是单色的全球和全国连锁店”,“克隆”城镇只能提供均质的嗅觉环境”1。同时,气味也有助于构建一个地方的社会经济身份,比如油腻的气味来自于快餐店,往往与棚户区和夜间经济相关联。如此,气味成为强调社会经济界限的一个无形标签。 1.3文章框架笔者在文章的第二部分,综述国内外城市气味景观的研究进展:国外的城市气味研究重在气味分类、 绘制城市气味景观,在诸多大城市都有实践i而国内除了文学作品中的描绘,目前只有一次针对城市气味景观的初步实验。笔者在文章的第三部分,重点介绍北京旧城城市气味景观研究(以下简称“北京气味研究”)的方法:结合北京旧城的路网数据,以地图兴趣点(point of interest,以下简称“POI”)数据间接反映城市气味源,并根据气味的扩散范围确定影响半径,得到10大类气味的空间分布,用以反映北京旧 city which is later ve rified with semantic analysis of social media data.Besides,Houhal a rea is selected as a case study area to show diffe rent layers of smells in a small scale and the influence of scents has on places.Eventually,this pape r discusses the possibility of employing smellscape in u rban planning and design.

Source document (2017)

Abstract

]在图片的可获得性日益提高和处理手段日臻成熟的背景下,图片是一种在近期将得到高度重视的城市数据源,是对已有多源城市数据的重要补充。为此文章提出了图片城市主义这一概念,认为其是基于体现客观世界和主观认知的大规模量化城市研究的一种方法论。本文首先对图片城市主义的内涵进行阐述,其次介绍了图片的若干来源,以及当前的分析与可视化工具,最后给出了图片城市主义在城市空间品质测度、街道绿化水平评价和城市意象分析等方面的研究案例。 [

虚拟现实技术的“嗅频”解决方案

Source document (2003)

Abstract

随着计算机硬件及软件技术的飞速发展,目前计算机视频及音频技术有了重大的突破 ,虚拟现实 ( >0?8:/1 @;A /1085 )技术应运而生,而计算机的“嗅频”技术仍缓步不前。有分析显示,气味较图像更吸引人。该文提出的虚拟现实技术的嗅频解决方案,可以说是对传统的虚拟现实技术的必要补充。文章从分子角度探讨了基于 BC’ @ (定量结构活性关系) 的气味识别理论,介绍了 C:D;?C=;38 气味分析专业软件的功能实现方案,说明了用于气味识别的气味识别子系统的实现原理和用于气味发生的气味发生子系统的实现方案。
