Error-Correcting Output Codes (ECOC) reveal a common way to model multi-class classification problems. According to this state of the art technique, a multi-class problem is decomposed into several binary ones. Additionally, on the ECOC framework we can ap ...
Chapter in the exhibition catalogue outlining the instigation and concept for the creation of the exhibition at the Biennale. The text focuses on the relation of urban development in Bahrain with the traditional and cultural connection to water and the sea ...
The city plays a major role in the dissemination of these technologies. Technological innovation is both the cause and effect of urban development, playing a decisive role in the structuring of cities but also representing a means of fulfilling emerging ne ...
Computer modelling at the urban scale is an increasingly vibrant area of research activity which aims to support designers to optimise the performance of new and existing urban developments. But the parameter space of an urban development is infinitely lar ...
This special issue of the Journal of Cleaner Production was initiated as a result of the 5th and 6th meetings of the Asia Pacific Roundtable for Sustainable Consumption and Production (APRSCP), which were held in Melbourne, Australia and Hanoi, Vietnam, re ...
Phytotechnologies are ecotechnologies relating to the use of vegetation, to resolve environmental problems in a watershed management, by prevention of landscape degradation, remediation and restoration of degraded ecosystems, kontrol of environmental proce ...
This paper presents the importance of microstructural studies for understanding concrete durability. Three examples-sulfate attack; alkali silica reaction and bacteriogenic corrosion in sewers arc used to illustrate the pitfalls which can arise from conven ...
Background Phenomena like rapid growth, unmanageable cities, an urban space in crisis, and the disproportionate expansion of capital cities have rendered instruments traditionally associated with planned urbanism ill-suited for city planning today. Traditi ...
This paper describes the results of initial experiments to apply computational algorithms to explore a large parameter space containing many variables in the search for an optimal solution for the sustainable design of an urban development using a potentia ...
In this paper we describe new software “CitySim” that has been conceived to support the more sustainable planning of urban settlements. This first version focuses on simulating buildings’ energy flows, but work is also under way to model energy embodied in ...
