Abstract Landscape ecological risk assessment (LERA) serves as a crucial tool for guiding effective environmental management. However, the conventional approach of LERA suffers from two notable drawbacks: utilization low‐resolution land‐use data (e.g., 30 × m) and application arbitrary evaluation units uniformly‐sized grids), both which introduce uncertainty inaccuracies into outcomes. Moreover, extent to traditional accurately reflects true level remains unexplored. To address these...

Individuals' indoor trajectories can be reconstructed with sensing data for navigation. However, the movement uncertainty of such has seldom been modelled before, which seriously affects reliability trajectory analytics. Previous methods modelling mainly focus on outdoor trajectories, and are based various user-specified assumptions, may not hold effective environments hence introduce inaccuracy in determining sizes uncertain regions trajectories. To address above challenge, this research...

Modelling the movement uncertainty of crowdsourced human trajectories in complex urban areas is useful for various mobility analytics and applications. However, existing modelling approaches only consider largest distance or speed, fixed sampling measurement errors, resulting limited accuracy prediction. To fill this gap, paper presents a Bi-directional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) assisted framework under environments. The proposed adaptively integrates pedestrian motion detection...
