Multi-temporal satellite image analysis for detecting the changes in mangrove vegetation between Allith and Alqahma on the Red Sea coast by Basma Alharbi

“…We used multi-spectral satellite images from moderate resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) Aqua, Landsat-5 Thematic Mapper (TM), Landsat-8 operational land imager (OLI), and modern-era retrospective analysis for research and applications, version 2 (MERRA-2) captured during 1990–2022. The data were processed and analysed using the optimised soil-adjusted vegetation index, classification method, overlay, and change detection to develop a digital map of the spatio-temporal changes in the mangroves from 1990 to 2022. …”

Modélisation des objets historiques selon la fonction, l’espace et le temps pour l’étude des dynamiques urbaines dans la longue durée by Xavier Rodier, Laure Saligny

“…It is the Cartesian product of the three sets, Social use, Space and Time, from which it stems.On the basis of this process, the Historical Object (OH) is broken down into three types of simple object, functional (EF), spatial (ES) and temporal (ET).- The thematic approach to the OH in an urban environment is based on social use, organized according to a hierarchical thesaurus.- Space, the most formalized of the three sets, is structured on the model of a planar topological graph without isthmi.- Time, always considered as continuous and linear, will be modelled by analogy with space using temporal topology defined in the field of artificial intelligence.The relationships between these three sets each characterize an interaction (social use-space, social use-time, time-space, or function-space-time). …”

Theoretical and Methodological Foundations of Designing a balance Model for Reproducing Investment Potential of Institutional Sectors in the Regional System by I. V. Naumov

“…The analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of the existing approaches showed that a systematic representation of the reproduction processes of the investment potential of institutional sectors in the territorial systems requires a detailed mapping of the movement processes of financial resources between the sectors, as well as spatial features of the movement of their investment resources between the regional systems. …”

Innovative Bionics Product Life-Cycle Management Methodology Framework with Built-In Reverse Biomimetics: From Inception to Clinical Validation by Kazem Alemzadeh

“…The goal of the reverse biomimetic approach is to implement functional feature extraction, surface reconstruction, and solid modelling into five stages of a design process. The benefit of virtually mapping this in a pictorial fashion with high-end software fosters a simpler understanding and representation of knowledge transfer from biology to engineering, and can lead to innovative bio-inspired developments. …”
