Evaluating urban shape of Tehran through differential semantics scale

Shape Semantics from Shape Context

3D models play an important role in many industrial applications. Therefore semantic processing for the purposes of comparing, cataloging and archiving shapes is a major concern. Most previous work considers comparisons based on the object’s overall geometry or in a reference frame which is computed from the object’s geometry alone, disregarding its context. There are also approaches which prop...

Improving the Quality of Urban Spaces through Image Processing, Case Study: 17th-Shahrivar Street of Tehran

Evaluating the Willingness to Pay for Urban Congestion Priced Zones (Case Study of Tehran)

Congestion pricing is one of the major travel demand management policies to reduce traffic volumes in metropolitans. One of the main factors for effective implementation of this policy is to analyze users' response to different toll rates. In this paper, the willingness of users to pay for using their personal cars is evaluated. The stated preference method was applied for data gathering. Sever...

Presentation of a TOD Index in Urban Areas through Spatial Analyses and HFIS (Case Study: Tehran)

The contemporary world possesses some issues such as urbanism and expansion of cities and these issues which require a specific type of planning. Transit Oriented Development (TOD) planning has emerged as one of the applicable planning methods, which tries to achieve integrated land use and transportation planning. In this study, TOD is conducted at a regional scale using an index measuring TOD...

A Semantics for Shape

Shapely types separate data, represented by lists, from shape, or structure. This separation supports shape polymorphism, where operations are deened for arbitrary shapes, and shapely operations, for which the shape of the result is determined by that of the input, permitting static shape checking. The shapely types are closed under the formation of xpoints, and hence include the usual algebrai...
