Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

As society increasingly moves towards sustainable urban growth, urban planners and city officials require tools that efficiently support spatial decision-making. Modeling and simulation (M&S) have been shown to be an adequate tool in this case. Cell-DEVS offers an optimized method of spatial simulation that can tackle computationally complex scenarios such as urban growth. To demonstrate this, we implement and discuss a well-known model, logistic urban growth (LUG), using the Cell-DEVS formalism. We show that this implementation supports the standard characteristics of LUG models by studying the variation of different parameters of the model such as restricted growth areas, spatial configuration and distance to features of interest.

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.
