Enhancing outlying growth simulation in urban cellular automata via intelligent extraction-fusion of land suitability and neighborhood effects: a case study of Wuhan, China by Qingyang Xu, Xuefeng Guan, Changlan Yang, Weiran Xing, Xiaoyu Chen, Huayi Wu

“…Urban growth has accelerated significantly in recent decades, categorized into two spatial patterns: adjacent and outlying growth. Traditional Cellular Automata (CA)-based models excel at simulating adjacent growth but exhibit limitations in modeling outlying growth, which can be summarized into two issues: 1) the overestimation of neighborhood effects caused by models’ excessive dependence on neighboring cell states; and 2) the ignorance of spatial heterogeneity in the relative importance of land suitability and neighborhood effects on urban growth. …”
