New Concept and Practice of Urban Flood Control Design Based on Waterfront Space Design by LI Yuanyuan, HOU Guibing, WANG Yingjie

“…Through systematic summary and problem analysis of domestic and foreign urban flood control design,this paper believes that the urban flood control design should develop from traditional water conservancy engineering design to a new stage of building urban waterfront space that integrates urban planning,ecological environment,garden landscape and other disciplines,and puts forward a new concept of urban flood control design based on urban waterfront space design.Through key measures such as the transformation of the water system in the connected area,the construction of green flexible ecological embankments,and the design of waterfront spaces shared by people and water,the waterfront spaces with urban public service functions can be created,which can effectively reduce the blocking of the ecological corridor between the city and the water system,better achieve the comprehensive effects of water security and aquatic ecology,as well as effectively promote the harmonious coexistence of city &water and the high-quality and sustainable development of the city under the premise of ensuring the safety of flood (tide) control.…”

Neural network model for dependency parsing incorporating global vector feature by Hengjun WANG, Nianwen SI, Yulong SONG, Yidong SHAN

“…LSTM and piecewise CNN were utilized to extract word vector features and global vector features,respectively.Then the two features were input to feed forward network for training.In model training,the probabilistic training method was adopted.Compared with the original dependency paring model,the proposed model focused more on global features,and used all potential dependency trees to update model parameters.Experiments on Chinese Penn Treebank 5 (CTB5) dataset show that,compared with the parsing model using LSTM or CNN only,the proposed model not only remains the relatively low model complexity,but also achieves higher accuracies.…”
