This paper aims to provide a five-step conceptual framework analyze the impacts built environment from multi-hazard interactions. Our methodology includes critical literature review and stakeholder workshops. framework's five steps are following: (I) identify hazards their interactions, (II) modelling, (III) analysis of hazards' spatio-temporal evolution impacts, (IV) identification impact (V) ...

Multi-criteria approaches to analysis of complex issues in coupled human-environment systems have found wide application across business, government and communities around the world. Increased attention has been paid to spatial implementations of multi-criteria analysis. Spatial capability is available in several GIS, such as IDRISI and ArcView, and is often customised for particular problems i...

Recently, a new approach in low bitrate coding of stereo and multi-channel audio has emerged: Spatial audio coding permits an efficient representation of multi-channel audio signals by transmitting a downmix signal along with some compact spatial side information describing the most salient properties of the multi-channel sound image. Besides its impressive efficiency allowing multi-channel sou...

The Extended Spatial Number Network (ESpaN) is a neural model that simulates processing of high-level numerical stimuli such as multi-digit numbers. The ESpaN model targets the explanation of human psychophysical data, such as error rates and reaction times, about multi-digit (base 10) numerical stimuli, and describes how such a competence can develop through learning. The model suggests how th...

Fuzzy logic systems have played significant role in computer information system, specifically in quality, reliability and safety of databases and information retrieval. This work deals with theory of spatial databases, spatial data infrastructure and automated map generalizations in multi scale map spaces. We put forward the definitions of spatial similarity relation in automated map generaliza...
