Tracy Onega,Tracy Onega,Tracy Onega,Eric J. Duell,Eric J. Duell,Eric J. Duell,Xun Shi,Dongmei Wang,Eugene Demidenko,Eugene Demidenko,David C. Goodman,David C. Goodman +11 more
TL;DR: This study estimated travel time to specialized cancer care settings for the continental U.S. population and calculated per capita oncologist supply.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cellular automata for simulating land use changes based on support vector machines
Qingsheng Yang,Xia Li,Xun Shi +2 more
TL;DR: This study tested the support vector machines (SVM) as a method for constructing nonlinear transition rules for CA and demonstrated that the proposed model can achieve high accuracy and overcome some limitations of existing CA models in simulating complex urban systems.
Journal ArticleDOI
Simulating complex urban development using kernel-based non-linear cellular automata
TL;DR: The kernel-based approach maps the original data vectors to an implicit high-dimensional feature space, through which complex non-linear problems are translated into simple linear problems, and achieves a slightly higher accuracy than a neural-network-based CA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Why does the temperature rise faster in the arid region of northwest China
Baofu Li,Yaning Chen,Xun Shi +2 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper found that among the four seasons the temperature change of winter has been playing the most important role in the yearly change in this region, and also found that the winter temperature has a strong association with the Siberian High (correlation coefficient: R = −0.715) and the greenhouse gas emission (R = 0.51).
Journal ArticleDOI
Using spatial information technologies to select sites for biomass power plants : A case study in Guangdong Province, China
TL;DR: In this article, a case study of using remote sensing and geographical information systems (GIS) to evaluate the feasibility of setting up new biomass power plants and optimizing the locations of plants in Guangdong, China is presented.
