“Locality – Adaptation” Research of Hydropower Resettlement Communities in the Jinsha River Basin: A Case Study of Ludila Hydropower Station by Fang WANG, Zhuoqi LI, Haoyi XU, Jiaqi YAN

“…At the settlement scale, the Mask Region-based Convolutional Neural Network (Mask R-CNN) deep learning model is utilized to identify architectural spatial features, categorizing three typical building types: traditional pitched-roof buildings, uniformly planned flat-roof buildings, and color steel plate-modified structures. Through multi-source data fusion (including remote sensing, demographic statistics, and compensation records) and field investigations, the research quantitatively analyzes the “locality – adaptation” reconstruction process of resettlement communities across the three spatial dimensions of living, production, and cultural spaces.Results1) Land cover evolution: Water storage of hydropower station inundates 37.12 km2 of land (including 21.61 km² of high-quality cultivated land), resulting in a loss of 43.68% of settlement production space. 2) Adjustment of architectural space: 65.8% of dwellings in the original villages are traditional timber-earth buildings with a tile roof, which adapt to the climate environment of concentrated rainfall and sufficient sunshine in the Jinsha River Basin. 48.7% of the resettlement sites adopt unified flat roof planning, and 51.3% realize functional optimization through self-construction or renovation, with the average renovation area reaching 230.9 m2. 3) Transformation of livelihood system: The annual compensation mechanism only restores 15.79% of the cultivated land allocation before resettlement, and the proportion of compensation income drops from 82.71% in the initial stage of relocation to 33.15% after long-term resettlement, driving the adjustment of crop structure to high value-added cash crops. 4) Cultural space reconstruction: In the context of the disappearance of traditional water transport functions, the three cultural relics reconstructed in different places show a symbolic turn. …”

pytom-match-pick: A tophat-transform constraint for automated classification in template matching by Marten L. Chaillet, Sander Roet, Remco C. Veltkamp, Friedrich Förster

“…However, TM faces challenges of weak signal of the macromolecules and interfering features with a high signal-to-noise ratio, which are often addressed by time-consuming, subjective manual curation of results. To improve the detection performance we introduce pytom-match-pick, a GPU-accelerated, open-source command line interface for enhanced TM in cryo-ET. …”
