CLUSTERING ANALYSIS FOR RESIDENTIAL AREAS BASED ON NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES

ON FUZZY NEIGHBORHOOD BASED CLUSTERING ALGORITHM WITH LOW COMPLEXITY

The main purpose of this paper is to achieve improvement in thespeed of Fuzzy Joint Points (FJP) algorithm. Since FJP approach is a basisfor fuzzy neighborhood based clustering algorithms such as Noise-Robust FJP(NRFJP) and Fuzzy Neighborhood DBSCAN (FN-DBSCAN), improving FJPalgorithm would an important achievement in terms of these FJP-based meth-ods. Although FJP has many advantages such as r...

Maximum Score Estimates of the Determinants of Residential Mobility: Implications for the Value of Residential Attachment and Neighborhood Amenities

This paper examines the determinants of the decision of low-income renters to move out of their current dwelling. Maximum score estimation is shown t be superior to ordinary discrete choice estimation techniques (probit, logit) for this problem, ad for similar discrete choices that require revering a previously optimal decision. The estimation reveals psychological costs f moving for typical lo...

Residential Segregation and Neighborhood Conditions in U.S. Metropolitan Areas

Civic Amenities in Urban Areas

6.2.1 The traditional role of municipal bodies had been one of providing basic amenities of civic life. Services such as water supply and sanitation, roads and drains, street-lights, collection and disposal of solid waste, maintenance of public places, burial grounds and crematoria, cattle pounds, registration of births and deaths, maintenance of markets have long been seen as the function of m...

WSNs clustering based on semantic neighborhood relationships

We propose a semantic clustering model based on a fuzzy inference system to find out the semantic neighborhood relationships in wireless sensor networks in order to both reduce energy consumption and improve the data accuracy. As a case study we describe a structural health monitoring application which was used to illustrate and assess the proposed model. We conduct experiments in order to eval...
