Rule-guided human classification of Volunteered Geographic Information

Ahmed Loai Ali, +3 more
- 01 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: The problem is tackled by developing a rule-guided classification approach that exploits data mining techniques of Association Classification to extract descriptive (qualitative) rules of specific geographic features and develops a recommendation system able to guide participants to the most appropriate classification.

A Semantic Region Growing Algorithm: Extraction of Urban Settings

Heidelinde Hobel, +3 more
TL;DR: It is argued that urban settings are a more accurate way of generalizing cities, since it more closely models human sense-making of urban spaces and is implemented as a modification of a standard image segmentation procedure.

Indexing large geographic datasets with compact qualitative representation

Zhiguo Long, +3 more
- 01 Jun 2016 - 
TL;DR: The central idea is to use minimum bounding rectangles to approximately represent region objects with arbitrary shape and complexity and only store spatial relations that cannot be unambiguously inferred from the relations of corresponding MBRs.

Qualitative Spatial Configuration Search

Paolo Fogliaroni, +2 more
- 21 Jul 2016 - 
TL;DR: A technical approach is suggested to include an open number of qualitative spatial relations in gis and a resolution strategy for these queries that is based on hypergraph matching and that exploits their semantic and structural characteristics are evaluated.
