Entropy and hierarchical clustering: characterising the morphology of the urban fabric in different spatial cultures
E. Brigatti, V. M. Netto, F. N. M. de Sousa Filho +1
In this work, we develop a general method for estimating the Shannon entropy of a bidimensional sequence based on the extrapolation of block entropies. We apply this method to anal…
From form to information: Analysing built environments in different spatial cultures
Vinicius M. Netto, Edgardo Brigatti, Caio Cacholas
Cities are different around the world, but does this fact have any relation to culture? The idea that urban form embodies idiosyncrasies related to cultural identities captures the…
More from Less? Environmental Rebound Effects of City Size
Joao Meirelles, Fabiano Ribeiro, Gabriel Cury +1
Global sustainability relies on our capacity of understanding and guiding urban systems, and their metabolism, in an adequate way. It has been proposed that bigger and denser citie…
Assessing Spatial Information in Physical Environments
Vinicius M. Netto, Edgardo Brigatti, Caio Cacholas +1
Many approaches have dealt with the hypothesis that the environment contain information, mostly focusing on how humans decode information from the environment in visual perception,…
On the relation between Transversal and Longitudinal Scaling in Cities
Fabiano L. Ribeiro, Joao Meirelles, Vinicius M. Netto +2
Given that a group of cities follows a scaling law connecting urban population with socio-economic or infrastructural metrics (transversal scaling), should we expect that each city…
