A big data approach to modelling urban population density functions: from monocentricity to polycentricity by Cehong Luo, Yujie Hu, Fahui Wang

“…Previous studies commonly used census data in areal units such as census tracts or census block groups, which varied a great deal in area size and shape and led to the zonal and scale effects, commonly referred to as the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP). …”

Signal selection and latency compensation in wide area controlled power system by Prakash Thyagarajan, Senthilkumar Vairakannu

“…Abstract This paper presents a new approach for selecting signals for the monitoring and control of power systems over a wide area. The approach solves the twin problems of locating Phasor Measurement Units for observability and placing dynamic controllers for controllability using distinct techniques. …”

Proposal for Low-Layer Metadata Collection Technology to Enhance IoT Metadata Utilization by Ryota Shiina, Shinya Tamaki, Che Huang, Tomoya Hatano, Takashi Yamada, Tatsuya Shimada, Tomohiro Taniguchi

“…This paper focuses on metadata collection for device management and control, and proposes a new collection method that uses low-layer communication while not modifying the existing protocol. Our proposal utilizes the extended area of the probe request (PRQ) frame of IEEE 802.11, which is a layer-2 protocol, to collect metadata. …”

Enhancing insights in sexually transmitted infection mapping: Syphilis in Forsyth County, North Carolina, a case study. by Lani Fox, William C Miller, Dionne Gesink, Irene Doherty, Marc Serre

“…Our methodology extends current models with: 1) donut geomasking to enhance resolution while protecting patient privacy; 2) a moving window uniform grid to control the modifiable areal unit problem, edge effect and remove kriging islands; and 3) mitigating the "small number problem" with Uniform Model Bayesian Maximum Entropy (UMBME). …”

A bivariate multifractal analysis approach to understanding socio-spatial segregation dynamics by Janka Lengyel, Stéphane G. Roux, Olivier Bonin, Stéphane Jaffard, Patrice Abry

“…Results show that a local bivariate multifractal analysis can not only be related to classical two-group segregation indices but also extends them to provide a robust analytical framework that (1) is less susceptible to the modifiable areal unit problem and normalization methods and that (2) can reveal more pronounced evolution across spatial scales. …”

Towards More Reliable Measures for “Perceived Urban Diversity” Using Point of Interest (POI) and Geo-Tagged Photos by Zongze He, Xiang Zhang

“…However, existing studies rely on static and non-visual data and seldom incorporate human perception aspects in the diversity estimation. Together with the modifiable areal unit problem (MAUP) in the traditional entropy-based approach, urban diversity is prone to be biased or underestimated. …”
