Design framework to renewal abandoned areas in historic districts by Ren Zhou, Zi Yang, Jia Liu, Jialing Chen, Weimin Guo

“…By using spatial syntax analysis to combine the overall pedestrian flow space with the depth of ancient historical plans, entrances are set according to the pedestrian flow, preserving unique spatial characteristics and transforming the abandoned land into new public building spaces with distinct regional and contiguous features. Through semantic translation rooted in local culture, classical elements were extracted from intangible cultural heritage and applied to the ancient town’s architectural facades, navigation systems, and structures, thereby mitigating homogenization tendencies in both spatial and cultural elements.…”

Robust DOA Estimation via a Deep Learning Framework with Joint Spatial–Temporal Information Fusion by Yonghong Zhao, Xiumei Fan, Jisong Liu

“…Specifically, we develop a novel CRDCNN-LSTM network architecture, which integrates a Cross-Residual Depthwise Convolutional Neural Network (CRDCNN) with a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) module for effective capture of both spatial and temporal features. The CRDCNN employs multi-level cross-residual connections and depthwise separable convolutions to enhance feature diversity while mitigating issues such as gradient vanishing and overfitting. …”

Mosquito prevention strategies can improve indoor heat stress in hot climates: a case of traditional Kenyan homes by Haiwei Li, Haimavati Raman, Bernard Abong’o, Teresa Bange, Yongling Zhao, Carol Brayne, Ronita Bardhan

“…Roof-level ventilation via open eaves promotes airflow and reduces heat, while windows offer conflicting effects by mitigating heat but increasing mosquito entry. Adaptive strategies such as open eaves with screens can reduce the bi-fold risks of malaria and indoor overheating, but may increase the indoor air pollution if housing design features, such as window-opening schedules and door design are not considered from the hazard and exposure perspectives for the population. …”
