Land use change (LUC) has gained attention as a core topic of global ecological
environment change research. The cellular automata (CA) model affects the global layout …

Spatio-temporal land-use change modeling, simulation, and prediction have become one of
the critical issues in the last three decades due to uncertainty, structure, flexibility, accuracy …

Accurate simulations and predictions of urban expansion are critical to manage urbanization
and explicitly address the spatiotemporal trends and distributions of urban expansion …

To reduce land conflicts and improve the coordination of human activities and land use, it is
crucial to conduct thorough research on sustainable land management and optimization. In …

Most contemporary urban cellular automata (CA) models primarily focus on the simulation of
urban land expansion, and cannot effectively simulate vertical urban growth. This study …

Many methods can be used to construct geographical cellular automata (CA) models of
urban land use, but most do not adequately capture spatial heterogeneity in urban …

As a powerful predictive technique based on machine learning, the maximum entropy
(MaxEnt) model has been widely used in geographic modeling. However, its performance in …
