Multi-modal deep learning for intelligent landscape design generation: A novel CBS3-LandGen model.

PloS one
With the acceleration of the global urbanization process, landscape design is facing increasingly complex challenges. Traditional manual design methods are gradually unable to meet the needs for efficiency, precision, and sustainability. To address t...

A bird species occurrence dataset from passive audio recordings across dense urban areas in Gothenburg, Sweden.

Scientific data
Bird species occurrence datasets are a valuable resource for understanding the effects of urbanization on various biotic conditions (e.g., species occupancy and richness). Existing datasets offer promising opportunities to explore variations among ci...

Monitoring temporal changes in large urban street trees using remote sensing and deep learning.

PloS one
In the rapidly changing dynamics of urbanization, urban forests offer numerous benefits to city dwellers. However, the information available on these resources is often outdated or non-existent, leading in part to inequitable access to these benefits...

Unsupervised deep clustering of high-resolution satellite imagery reveals phenotypes of urban development in Sub-Saharan Africa.

The Science of the total environment
Sub-Saharan Africa and other developing regions have urbanized extensively, leading to complex urban features with varying presence and types of roads, buildings and vegetation. We use a novel hierarchical deep learning framework and high-resolution ...

Evaluating the change and trend of construction land in Changsha City based GeoSOS-FLUS model and machine learning methods.

Scientific reports
This study systematically analyzes the land use changes in Changsha City from 2000 to 2023. Three classification models-Random Forest (RF), Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT), and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) were employed to evaluate the accu...

Urban change detection: assessing biophysical drivers using machine learning and Google Earth Engine.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Urban areas are experiencing rapid transformations, driven by population growth, economic development, and policy changes. Understanding and monitoring these dynamic changes is crucial for sustainable urban planning and management. This study leverag...

Exploring the impact of natural and human activities on vegetation changes: An integrated analysis framework based on trend analysis and machine learning.

Journal of environmental management
Climate, human activities and terrain are crucial factors influencing vegetation changes. Despite their crucial role, there is a notable lack of research exploring the nonlinear relationships between them and vegetation changes, especially over exten...

Exploring the impact of land use on bird diversity in high-density urban areas using explainable machine learning models.

Journal of environmental management
Amid rapid urbanization, land use shifts in cities globally have profound effects on ecosystems and biodiversity. Birds, as a crucial component of urban biodiversity, are highly sensitive to environmental changes and often serve as indicator species ...

Spatiotemporal analysis of land surface temperature and land cover changes in Prešov city using downscaling approach and machine learning algorithms.

Environmental monitoring and assessment
In recent decades, global climate change and rapid urbanization have aggravated the urban heat island (UHI) effect, affecting the well-being of urban citizens. Although this significant phenomenon is more pronounced in larger metropolitan areas due t...

Ensemble intelligence prediction algorithms and land use scenarios to measure carbon emissions of the Yangtze River Delta: A machine learning model based on Long Short-Term Memory.

PloS one
Land use in urban agglomerations is the main source of carbon emissions, and reducing them and improving land use efficiency are the keys to achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs). To advance the literature on densely populated cities and hig...
