Revealing the Impact of Urban Form on COVID-19 Based on Machine Learning: Taking Macau as an Example

Abstract: The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted a reassessment of urban space, including planning and architecture. This study employs a conditional generative adversarial network (CGAN) to derive the distribution of urban texture based on COVID-19 hotspots. It establishes a link between urban form and the pandemic, enabling the machine to predict high-risk urban forms. The study focuses on Macau, conducting model training, image generation, and comparing results for different assumed epidemic distribution degrees. The implications for urban planning are as follows: 1) Urban forms exhibit a correlation with epidemic distribution, allowing CGAN to predict high-risk urban forms; 2) Large-scale and high-density buildings promote COVID-19 transmission; 3) Green public open spaces and squares inhibit COVID-19 spread; and 4) Reducing building volume and density while increasing green public spaces can help mitigate COVID-19 distribution. This research offers valuable insights and potential applications in planning and design. [SCITIP]

作者的话

1. 心得分享

分享 11 月第一则喜讯之前,先讲一个前提条件:我是一个现实的人,我是一个鼠目寸光的人(本身我也属鼠啊!!!!),我是一个只看到眼前有什么要求就去做就去满足的人,明天和意外不知道何时降临,先做了再说,想不了那么遥远的事情。别跟我扯什么以后别人眼光怎么怎么看待,什么时候入土都不知道,想不了这么多😕。

讲回正题,这是一篇 8 月底投稿并于 11 月 2 日见刊的期刊论文《Revealing the Impact of Urban Form on COVID-19 Based on Machine Learning: Taking Macau as an Example》(基于机器学习揭示城市形态对 COVID-19 的影响——以澳门为例)。发表在《Sustainability》Volume 14,Issue 21,同时,属于 Special Issue Artificial Intelligence Applications for Sustainable Urban Living(人工智能应用在可持续城市生活)。全文加上附录大概 31 页。本人为第一作者,主笔、修改、返修核对、联络助理编辑、写 letter 逐点回应审稿人。Liang Zheng 主要提供技术支持(文章第二部分的算法、出图),师妹 Junxin Song 在文献综述的梳理和统计数据方面给予了较大支持,师弟 Linsheng Huang 在统计数据、翻译地名以及分析的一个小节上给予很大帮助。通讯的把关和指导思路也是非常重要的环节。最后加折扣是 1600 瑞士法郎,便宜两成。

2. 简单讲讲

这篇文章主要是通过澳门的城市形态切片进行机器学习,叠图当时 618 澳门疫情分布的热点图,发现疫情主要分布在怎样的区域?这个区域呈现的城市空间形态是什么样子的?具有什么特点?机器学习学会了这个训练集,我们再画一些不同形状的疫情分布点,让机器学习来推导出城市形态什么样。后续的可持续生活之中,设计人员可以做什么?然后展开了一些讨论、总结。

上个月 29 号收到了录用

然后 2 号进入了发表 online(不好意思,我怕有的中介网上盗图,所以贴了大量表情包,个别单词会有所遮挡,但证书是真实存在的)

从我的账号看,前后花了 71 天。

关于审稿人的意见、我的回复,我已勾选了公开的选项,感兴趣的可以网上查阅。

其实内心会挣扎很久要不要投这个刊,因为,2020 年以前它曾经上过预警,2021 年又撤下来了。但是,于我而言,没差。按照我入学那一届的评鉴文件,这个刊 SCIE、SSCI、EI 都收录了,那还是算一级论文,我为什么不投?在我心里面,没有那么多的畏惧世俗眼光✊。

或许有人说什么水刊等同学术污点,但我更想说哦,又不是数据造假又不是代写,自己辛辛苦苦做的到底谁才是污点?难道发出来 CNS 顶刊的人才没有污点吗?未来就业又不是非要走学术道路,很多人起步也是发普刊而已,期刊合法,学术成果合规,即可,哪来的这么多的说法。

细心查一下,发现隔壁学院的副校长今年也发了这个刊。至少,在我读书的期间,我不用担心这个刊发表的论文导致我进行不了学术评鉴。本论文动态已同步微博。不打算同步朋友圈。
