Spatial interpolation is a traditional geostatistical operation that aims at predicting the attribute values of unobserved locations given sample data defined on point supports. However, continuity and heterogeneity underlying spatial are too complex to be approximated by classic statistical models. Deep learning models, especially idea conditional generative adversarial networks (CGANs), provide us with perspective for formalizing as task. In this article, we design novel deep architecture...

Inferring the unknown properties of a place relies on both its observed attributes and characteristics places to which it is connected. Because are unstructured metrics for connections can be diverse, challenging incorporate them in spatial prediction task where results could affected by how neighborhoods delineated true relevance among hard identify. To bridge gap, we introduce graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) model as graph, each formalized node, encoded node features,...

Mixed use has been extensively applied as an urban planning principle and hinders the study of single functions. To address this problem, it is worth decomposing mixed use. Inspired by concept spectral unmixing in remote sensing applications, paper proposes a framework for mixed-use decomposition based on big geo-data. Mixed-use terms human activities differs from traditional land research, more reasonable to infer actual function land. The consists four steps, namely temporal activity...

The spatial concentration of the human activity is a crucial indication socioeconomic vitality. Accurately mapping volumes fundamental to support regional sustainable development. Current approaches rely on mobile positioning data, which record information about daily but are inaccessible in most cities due privacy and data sharing concerns. Alternative methods needed provide more generalized predictions extensive areas while maintaining low cost. This study demonstrates how remote sensing...

Abstract Methods from artificial intelligence (AI) and, in particular, machine learning and deep learning, have advanced rapidly recent years been applied to multiple fields including geospatial analysis. Due the spatial heterogeneity fact that conventional methods can not mine large data, studies typically model homogeneous regions locally within entire study area. However, AI models process amounts of theoretically, more diverse train robust a well-trained will be. In this paper, we...

Big geo-data are often aggregated according to spatio-temporal units for analyzing human activities and urban environments. Many applications categorize such data into groups compare the characteristics across groups. The intergroup differences vary with units, essential is identify apparently different characteristics. However, dependence, variety, complexity of tasks impede an effective unit assessment. Inspired by extract critical image components based on explainable artificial...

In forestry studies, deep learning models have achieved excellent performance in many application scenarios (e.g., detecting forest damage). However, the unclear model decisions (i.e., black-box) undermine credibility of results and hinder their practicality. This study intends to obtain explanations such through use explainable artificial intelligence methods, then feature unlearning methods improve performance, which is first attempt field forestry. Results three experiments show that...

Spatial scale is a fundamental issue for geographical phenomena because the size of spatial unit adopted analysis can have significant effect on aggregated data and corresponding analytical results. There exists much research distribution while few has paid attention to interactions. Big geo-data with micro-level individual movements provide an unprecedented opportunity explore interactions from bottom up understand perspective interaction patterns. In this paper, we introduced empirical...

Precise distinction of mixed functions on urban land is essential for studies and planning, while existing methods are limited by high sampling bias, low observation frequency, lack semantic information in common data sources. In this paper, we introduce a new proxy human behavior, the telecom traffic as remedy to above limitations, present an analytical framework which utilizes anonymized aggregated infer at spatiotemporal granularities fine buildings hours.
