Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

As a scale dependent measure of heterogeneity, lacunarity has been applied to the analysis of structures in both fractals and non-fractals. In this paper, the lacunarity concept and some lacunarity estimation methods are briefly described, then a Lacunarity Analysis extension for ArcView GIS (ESRI) is introduced. Using binary and grayscale images, several examples are also given for lacunarity analysis of spatial heterogeneity. Experiments with gray-scale image textures show that a new lacunarity estimation method can provide more accurate heterogeneity measurement than some existing methods. The results suggest that lacunarity analysis is a promising tool for spatial heterogeneity measurement in a GIS environment.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
