TL;DR: The state of the art, explaining the science of smart cities is defined and seven project areas are proposed: Integrated Databases for the Smart City, Sensing, Networking and the Impact of New Social Media, Modelling Network Performance, Mobility and Travel Behaviour, Modelled Urban Land Use, Transport and Economic Interactions, Decision Support as Urban Intelligence, Participatory Governance and Planning Structures for the smart city.

TL;DR: A new fully automatic image information extraction, generalization and mosaic workflow is presented that is based on multiscale textural and morphological image features extraction and a new systematic approach for quality control and validation allowing global spatial and thematic consistency checking is proposed and applied.

TL;DR: This paper proposes a new type of second-generation connectivity termed mask-based connectivity which eliminates all previous dependencies and extends the ways the image domain can be connected and provides an efficient algorithm based on the max-tree to compute attribute filters based on these connectivities.

TL;DR: The work presented in this paper explores the properties of this image decomposition through sets of area zones, and an example with the leveling-like convex/concave segmentation scheme is given.

TL;DR: A hierarchical partition representation structure is introduced to map the evolution of components along the dissimilarity range in the absence of constraints to allow for custom and interactive segmentation of the image.
