Effects of the interplay between topology and function of an integrated urban development on patterns of user movement
Bibliographic record
Abstract
With the advent of distributed multi-sensory networks of devices, vast troves of real-time data can be gathered about our interactions with the built environment. These rich data sets can be mined to achieve improved and informed data-driven designs of buildings, neighborhoods, and potentially entire cities. Among those, integrated developments have the peculiarity of combining multiple functions within a compact space and, as such, behave as microcosms of a city that can help address the problem of urban sprawl and density. However, a general lack of data and framework about integrated developments hinders our ability to test design hypotheses about the complex interplay between heterogeneity in both space and function. Here, we apply a data-driven approach to analyze the joint influence of topology and function on user movement within a state-of-the-art integrated development in Singapore. Specifically, we leverage the network representation of the building and use movement data collected from 51 individuals over a month. We show evidence of correlation (40%) between the spatial network features and human movement at the building level. We are also able to quantify the relationship between the functional and spatial components of the integrated development through user movement. Previous studies have shown a 60% or higher correlation between the topology and human movement at the city or country scales. Our moderate correlation, therefore, implies that more factors influencing user movement are at play. The heterogeneity in the spatial function introduced trips with diverse origins and destinations. A further data-driven analysis integrating origins and destinations reveals both qualitative and quantitative means of studying the relationship between the built environment and the processes that take place in them.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
