IMPACT OF THE SCALE ON SEVERAL METRICS USED IN GEOGRAPHICAL OBJECT-BASED IMAGE ANALYSIS: DOES GEOBIA MITIGATE THE MODIFIABLE AREAL UNIT PROBLEM (MAUP)?

Impact of the Scale on Several Metrics Used in Geographical Object-Based Image Analysis: Does GEOBIA Mitigate the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem (MAUP)?

Using two GEOBIA (Geographical Object Based Image Analysis) algorithms on a set of DUM-DUM segmented images compared to grid partitioning at different scales, we show that statistical metrics related to both objects and sets of pixels are (more or less) subject to the Modifiable Areal Unit Problem.Subsequently, even in a same spatial partition, the

A Constant-Pressure Hydraulic PTO System for a Wave Energy Converter Based on a Hydraulic Transformer and Multi-Chamber Cylinder

This paper presents Allergy Relief a constant-pressure hydraulic PTO system that can convert stored pressure energy into electrical energy at a stable speed through hydraulic motors and generators.A multi-chamber cylinder can be connected to the main power generation circuit by check valves, and the motor displacement can be controlled by a fuzzy c

Some Einstein Geometric Aggregation Operators for q-Rung Orthopair Fuzzy Soft Set With Their Application in MCDM

q-rung orthopair fuzzy soft sets (q-ROFSS) is a progressive form for orthopair fuzzy sets.It is also an appropriate extension of intuitionistic fuzzy soft sets (IFSS) and Pythagorean fuzzy soft sets (PFSS).The strict prerequisite gives assessors too much autonomy to precise their opinions about membership and non-membership values.The q-ROFSS has a
