  5. Introduction: Urban growth facts • 1970 to 1990, more than 30,000 sq.m. of U.S. rural land became urban(Statesman Journal, 1991). • 1969 to 1989, U.S. population increased by 22.5%, and VMT (vehicles miles traveled) by 98.4%(Federal Highway Administration, 1991). • 1983 to 1987, U.S. population increased by 9.2 million, and # of cars and trucks increased by 20.1 millions(Statistical Abstract of United States, 1989). The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  6. Statement of the problem • Excessive unplanned urban growth. • Absence of a standard urban growth model and a robust calibration module. • Evaluation strategy. • Satellite imagery availability with minimal cost. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  7. Research objectives • Cellular automata, imagery, & other inputs for urban growth modeling. • Imagery based design to minimize input data and modeling uncertainty. • A spatiotemporal algorithm besides genetic algorithms to enhance calibration efficiency. • Fuzzy logic theory for continuous urban growth modeling. • Neural networks for boundary modeling. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  8. Literature review: General • Two types of urban models: • Scale-based models: - Specific [e.g., BASS II (Bay Area Simulation System) for San Francisco, Landis(1992)]. - General [e.g., HILT (Human Induced Land Transformations), Kirtland, (1993) ]. • Model’s applicability: - Physical aspects [e.g., Alonso, (1978)]. - Social aspects [e.g., Jacobs, (1961)]. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  9. Literature review: Cellular Automata • Fastest emerging urban dynamic models. • Multi-dimensional discrete system. • Uses simple yet accurate transition rules for urban modeling. • Uses social and physical factors. • Fits urban process spatially in imagery. • Better in urban modelling than mathematical models (Batty and Xie, 1994a). The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  10. Literature review: Cellular Automata • Earliest implementation of CA for geographic systems by Tobler (1979). • Couclelis (1985) provided theoretical framework for CA in complex geographic problems [e.g., structure] • CA first used for urban modeling by White et al. (White and Engelen, 1992a; 1992b) • CA used by Batty and Xie (1994a) for modeling of Cardiff (UK) and Savannah (GA). The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  11. Literature review: Cellular Automata • SLEUTH (Slope, Land use, Exclusion, Urban extent, Transportation, Hillshade), Clarke et al. (1997) • Four types of data: land cover, slope, transportation, and protected lands. • Five factors for urban growth (e.g., SLOPE and ROAD-GRAVITY. • Complex transition rules. • Visual and statistical tests for calibration. • Clarke and Gydos (1998) applied “SLEUTH” for urban growth in San Francisco region & Washington D.C/Baltimore. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  12. Literature review: Cellular Automata • Yang and Lo (2003) used “SLEUTH” to test urban modeling scenarios in Atlanta, GA. • Wu and Webster (1998) used Multi Criteria Evaluation analysis to identify CA parameter values. • Neural networks used by Li and Yeh (2001) to calibrate CA rules. • Wu (2002) development probability based CA model. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  13. Literature review:GeneticsAlgorithms • Recent direction in CA calibration. • Colonna et al (1998) used GA to generate new rules for CA to simulate the land use changes of Rome, Italy. • Wong et al (2001): GA for household and employment distributions’ parameters for Hong Kong. • Goldstein (2003):SLEUTH calibration. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  14. Literature review: Fuzzy Logic (FL) • Extend binary theory for continuous status. • FL for geographic boundaries with high spatial variability (Wang and Hall, 1996). • Gradual change in land use conditions over time (Dragicevic & Marceau, 2000). • FL in Wu (1996; 1998) work to define CA transition rules for land conversion. • Liu and Phinn (2003) identify pixel state change with a fuzzy membership function. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  15. Literature review: Neural Networks(NN) • NN to mimic biological neural networks. • NN simulate geo-spatial complex systems (Openshaw, 1998). • Liu (2000) used NN to detect the change from non-urban to urban land use. • Yeh and Li (2002): NN with CA for urban simulation to model land use change. • NN with GIS to forecast land use change (Pijanowski et al., 2002). The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  16. Literature review: Unsolved issues • A standard model for defining & calibrating CA transition rules is absent in literature. • Most models do not have an explicit transition rules [e.g., Wu model, 2002)]. • CA models do not use multispectral imagery for urban extent or other data directly. They use cadastral maps instead. • Time consuming calibration (SLEUTH :135 days). • No effective search methods for calibration. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  17. Literature review: Unsolved issues • An effective evaluation scheme is needed to help select the best rules. • Spatial calibration is not included in most CA calibration algorithms to date. • A fuzzy guided cellular automata model is needed, where CA rules can be designed as a function of the FL output. • Calibration in fuzzy CA urban modeling needs to be clearly identified.

  40. Genetic algorithms calibration:Elitism and Rank Selection • The best 6 strings in terms of objective function are copied directly to next generation (elitism). • The rest 24 strings are selected using rank selection (string count). • This will end the selection process with a total of 30 strings. • Bad strings are not selected (search is directed to good strings). The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006)

  41. Genetic algorithms calibration: Crossover and mutation • Crossover: a pair of strings meet to produce offspring (same or better quality). • Crossover probability is selected as 80% where 24 strings are crossed over: • 6 elitism strings crossedover to produce new 6 strings to be added with a total of 12 strings. • First 18 strings in the selection are crossedover. The ASA-CSSA-SSSA International Annual Meetings (November 12-16, 2006) Crossover point
