Most of the population in the future will live in urban areas, and the demand for cultural ecosystem services is expected to grow. Peri-urban ecosystems are highly pressured, often leading to conflicting management situations that vary with the socioeconomic scenario. Understanding what is known about the relationships between cultural services and peri-urban areas can enhance natural resource management. A quantitative review of recent literature shows the global trends and patterns based on socio-cultural valuation approaches. From this analysis, we have revealed that cultural services in peri-urban areas have become more significant, and a dominant global pattern is linking peripherical forest ecosystems with outdoor recreation and aesthetic values. Additionally, agricultural areas were associated with environmental education in the global North. At the same time, in the South, low perception of cultural services was clustered with informal settlements near or around a peri-urban landscape. Based on this quantitative review, we provide several knowledge gaps that could guide six future research directions.

未来大部分人口将居住在城市地区，对文化生态系统服务的需求预计将不断增长。城郊生态系统承受着巨大的压力，往往会因社会经济状况的不同而导致管理上的冲突。了解文化服务与城郊地区之间的关系可以加强自然资源管理。对近期文献的定量回顾显示了基于社会文化评估方法的全球趋势和模式。通过分析，我们发现城郊地区的文化服务已变得越来越重要，全球的主要模式是将外围森林生态系统与户外娱乐和审美价值联系起来。此外，在全球北方，农业区与环境教育相关联。同时，在南方，对文化服务的低感知与城郊景观附近或周围的非正规居住区有关。基于这一定量研究，我们提出了几个知识缺口，可为未来的六个研究方向提供指导。

Residence and work-related choices are commonly assumed interdependent and associated with some other individuals' and households' life events as well as people's socio-demographics. This paper proposes an integrated dynamic model to capture the determinants of residential and work-related mobilities, taking into account their associations with other life events. The change of employment is modeled with its multi-dimensional features, i.e., change of working hours and change of work place location, while residential mobility is modeled through the change of residential location as well as with whom within the household the move out take place. The Dutch micro-population data from 2015 to 2019 provided by the Netherlands CBS (Census Bureau of Statistics) are used to train and validate a dynamic Bayesian network (DBN) model. The integrated model has a high prediction precision with an average of 89.77% across life events. The results suggest that other life events, such as getting married or divorced, significantly affect the relocation of residence, while changes in working hours strongly influence the work place relocation. However, the relocations of residence and work place in the Netherlands appeared not to be directly intertwined.

居住和工作相关的选择通常被认为是相互依存的，并与其他一些个人和家庭的生活事件以及人们的社会人口统计相关联。本文提出了一个综合动态模型来捕捉居住和工作相关流动的决定因素，同时考虑到它们与其他生活事件的关联。就业变化的模型具有多维特征，即工作时间的变化和工作地点的变化，而居住流动性的模型则通过居住地点的变化以及与谁一起迁出家庭来建立。荷兰统计局（CBS）提供的 2015 年至 2019 年荷兰微观人口数据被用于训练和验证动态贝叶斯网络（DBN）模型。该综合模型具有较高的预测精度，在各种生活事件中的平均预测精度为 89.77%。结果表明，结婚或离婚等其他生活事件会显著影响居住地的迁移，而工作时间的变化会强烈影响工作地点的迁移。然而，在荷兰，居住地和工作地点的迁移似乎并不直接相互关联。

Intra-urban residential mobility has become increasingly frequent and is contributing to changes in urban spatial structure with the reform of China's urban housing system. Supported by multi-source data and taking life course theory as a research perspective, this study identifies the relocation network between research spatial units and relocation intensity within research units of residents of different age groups within the 4th ring road of Wuhan. Employing the community detection algorithm and spatial autocorrelation index, the differences in relocation features among different age groups are analyzed; based on the findings of the spatial lag model, a model of the relationship between the built environment factors and relocation intensity is proposed. This study finds that there are differences in relocation network and community structure between residents of different age groups, and the differences exhibit a distribution connected to age groups in their significance levels. Inflow and outflow intensity of residents in different age groups have differences in relocation frequency characteristics and location distribution. Built environment indicators are important influencing factors in relocation decisions, and the type of mechanism by which each factor influences the relocation intensity varies between different age groups.

随着中国城镇住房制度的改革，城市内部居住流动日益频繁，并促进了城市空间结构的变化。本研究以多源数据为支撑，以生命历程理论为研究视角，识别了武汉市四环线内不同年龄段居民在研究空间单元间的迁移网络和研究单元内的迁移强度。运用社区检测算法和空间自相关指数，分析了不同年龄组居民搬迁特征的差异；基于空间滞后模型的研究结果，提出了建筑环境因素与搬迁强度的关系模型。研究发现，不同年龄段居民的搬迁网络和社区结构存在差异，且差异在显著性水平上呈现出与年龄段相关的分布。不同年龄段居民的迁入强度和迁出强度在迁入频率特征和地点分布上存在差异。环境建设指标是居民搬迁决策的重要影响因素，各因素对搬迁强度的影响机制类型在不同年龄组之间存在差异。

The integration of digital technologies into urban practices has expanded opportunities for citizen participation and enabled more effective data-driven decision-making. Despite these advancements, challenges such as complex data management and equitable public engagement persist. These challenges are amplified in densely populated cities like Singapore, where the demand for effective and inclusive digital participation frameworks is paramount. Accordingly, this research aims to develop an assessment framework specifically for digital participation processes in such urban contexts through a two-stage analytical methodology. The first stage involves semi-structured interviews with stakeholders, including urban designers and planners, authorities, and residents, to explore challenges and perspectives qualitatively. These qualitative data are then rigorously analyzed using thematic coding. The second stage involves opinion surveys, the results of which are subjected to Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to yield a quantitative assessment tool. The findings identify critical success factors, including the need for context-specific interventions, active engagement between residents and designers, integration of multi-scale datasets, and the use of structured evaluation metrics. By employing this integrated approach, the research provides a comprehensive and actionable framework to enhance digital citizen participation in urban contexts for both macro-environmental and micro-cultural decisions in post-participation.

数字技术与城市实践的结合扩大了公民参与的机会，并使数据驱动的决策更加有效。尽管取得了这些进步，但复杂的数据管理和公平的公众参与等挑战依然存在。在新加坡这样人口稠密的城市，这些挑战更加严峻，因此对有效、包容的数字参与框架的需求至关重要。因此，本研究旨在通过两个阶段的分析方法，专门针对此类城市背景下的数字参与过程制定评估框架。第一阶段是对利益相关者（包括城市设计师和规划师、政府部门和居民）进行半结构化访谈，从定性角度探讨所面临的挑战和观点。然后使用主题编码法对这些定性数据进行严格分析。第二阶段是民意调查，调查结果通过多标准决策分析（MCDA）得出定量评估工具。研究结果确定了关键的成功因素，包括需要针对具体情况采取干预措施、居民与设计师之间的积极参与、多尺度数据集的整合以及结构化评估指标的使用。通过采用这种综合方法，该研究提供了一个全面、可操作的框架，以加强城市环境中的数字公民参与，从而在参与后做出宏观环境和微观文化决策。

Window views significantly influence residential quality and real estate value, particularly in high-rise residential buildings. Previous studies have predominantly focused on water and green views, resulting in a lack of clarity regarding the influence of other types of views on house prices. In this study, we quantified and analyzed the impacts of 9 window view elements, including sky, high-rise buildings, low-rise buildings, trees, grass, water, hard ground, roads, and barren land, on housing prices using online real estate images and computer vision techniques. Focusing on high-rise buildings constructed in the past five years, our findings, based on spatial hedonic pricing models, reveal that an increased proportion of water views through windows has a significant positive effect on property prices. Conversely, the presence of grass and hard ground is associated with significant negative impacts. This study examines the influence of various window view elements on apartment prices, offering valuable insights for urban planning, architectural design, and property development.

窗外景观对住宅质量和房地产价值有重大影响，尤其是高层住宅。以往的研究主要集中于水景和绿景，导致其他类型的景观对房价的影响不够明确。在本研究中，我们利用在线房地产图像和计算机视觉技术，量化分析了天空、高层建筑、低层建筑、树木、草地、水面、硬地、道路和荒地等 9 种窗景元素对房价的影响。我们以过去五年中建成的高层建筑为研究对象，基于空间享乐主义定价模型的研究结果表明，增加窗外水景的比例对房价有显著的积极影响。相反，草地和硬质地面的存在则会产生明显的负面影响。本研究探讨了各种窗景元素对公寓价格的影响，为城市规划、建筑设计和房地产开发提供了有价值的见解。

The Olympics are powerful tools to catalyse development, many times through “starchitecture” or “Olympic urbanism” strategies regenerating degraded urban areas in prime city zones. However, that often brings adverse social effects, namely displacement and gentrification. Hosts have been pressured to mitigate such effects, but the strict Olympic Games financial model severely constrains hosts' opportunities. Moreover, resorting to private sector funding is a difficult task, except for the construction of accommodation facilities as, in the context of the Games, land and property values tend to be highly speculative. Implementing value capture mechanisms can prove valuable to mitigate the event's social impacts, but this solution is difficult to implement and reduces the Games' economic value. The application of value capture in the Games' context seems to be a gap in the literature and, thus, this research introduces such a concept to Olympic studies, highlighting how it can be particularly valuable given the unique characteristics of Olympic projects. Resorting to a literature review, the argument is built around three lines of thought evidencing the paradoxes of combining social responsibility with the mega-event strategy to draw a pathway for possible applications of value capture that account for such paradox when mitigating Games-related social injustices.

奥运会是催化发展的有力工具，很多时候是通过 "建筑 "或 "奥运城市主义 "战略在城市黄金地段重建退化的城区。然而，这往往会带来不利的社会影响，即流离失所和贵族化。东道主一直受到压力，要求减轻这些影响，但严格的奥运会财政模式严重限制了东道主的机会。此外，除了建造住宿设施外，借助私营部门的资金是一项艰巨的任务，因为在奥运会的背景下，土地和财产的价值往往具有很高的投机性。实施价值获取机制对于减轻奥运会的社会影响很有价值，但这一解决方案很难实施，而且会降低奥运会的经济价值。在奥运会背景下应用价值捕捉似乎是文献中的一个空白，因此，本研究将这一概念引入奥运研究，并强调鉴于奥运项目的独特性，价值捕捉如何具有特别的价值。通过文献综述，本研究围绕三条思路展开论证，证明了将社会责任与大型活动战略相结合的悖论，从而为价值捕捉的可能应用指明了道路，在缓解与奥运会有关的社会不公时考虑到了这种悖论。

In the process of urban development, spatial structure within cities undergoes great changes, where the rural areas are surrounded by newly urban blocks, leading to the widespread of urban villages. Thus, quick and accurate prediction of urban villages is crucial for urban planning, management and sustainability. Recently, point-of-interest (POI) data mining has emerged as a popular topic in urban research. This study aims to propose an urban village prediction model in complex urban landscape patterns by utilizing POI data as a single data source. We firstly calculated word embeddings of POI types as the semantic features of urban villages based on Word2Vec. Afterwards, a BiLSTM-Multiscale-Attention (BMA) model is proposed to predict urban or non-urban villages based on POI word embeddings. Experimental results in several major cities of China, including Beijing, Tianjin, Xi'an, Shijiazhuang, Wuhan, and Guangzhou indicates that the proposed model achieved an average overall accuracy of 84.06 %, outperforming several other data-driven methods. This study demonstrates that POI data can provide accurate spatial distribution information for urban villages. These findings provide new ideas and references for comprehensive understanding of urban villages at a fine scale.

在城市发展过程中，城市内部的空间结构发生了巨大变化，农村地区被新的城市街区所包围，导致城中村的普遍存在。因此，快速准确地预测城中村对于城市规划、管理和可持续发展至关重要。最近，兴趣点（POI）数据挖掘已成为城市研究的热门话题。本研究旨在利用 POI 数据作为单一数据源，提出复杂城市景观模式下的城中村预测模型。首先，我们基于 Word2Vec 计算了 POI 类型的词嵌入，作为城中村的语义特征。之后，我们提出了一个 BiLSTM-Multiscale-Attention (BMA) 模型，根据 POI 词嵌入预测城中村或非城中村。在北京、天津、西安、石家庄、武汉和广州等中国几个主要城市的实验结果表明，所提出的模型达到了 84.06 % 的平均总体准确率，优于其他几种数据驱动方法。这项研究表明，POI 数据可以为城中村提供准确的空间分布信息。这些发现为在精细尺度上全面了解城中村提供了新的思路和参考。

Smart governance based on digital technologies offers new possibilities for enhancing governance efficacy. This article aims to explore how smart governance can be systematically applied in affordable housing. To this end, the article proposes an analytical framework that reveals the relationship among smart governance practices, pre-practice preparations, the balancing of paradoxes, and the good governance of affordable housing, then the case of Hangzhou is employed to illustrate this framework. This article argues that smart governance is not a patchwork of fragmented application scenarios but a coherent system. Smart governance for affordable housing needs to be prepared in terms of technology infrastructure and institutional innovation.

基于数字技术的智能治理为提高治理效率提供了新的可能性。本文旨在探讨如何在经济适用房中系统地应用智能治理。为此，文章提出了一个分析框架，揭示了智能治理实践、实践前准备、悖论平衡和保障性住房善治之间的关系，并以杭州为例对这一框架进行了说明。本文认为，智慧治理不是零散应用场景的拼凑，而是一个连贯的系统。保障性住房的智能治理需要在技术基础设施和制度创新方面做好准备。在准备和实践阶段，还需要平衡一系列悖论，实现公共价值，这是实现保障性住房善治的基础。本文有助于从理论上理解智慧治理的各个组成部分及其内在逻辑关系，并提供了一个现有的保障性住房智慧治理案例，供其他城市参考。

Despite educational poverty being traditionally addressed within the social and educational domains, recent interdisciplinary research highlights the role of the territorial context in fostering social inclusion and counteracting educational poverty. This paper reflects on the city as a learning and educational context, assuming the framework of the Italian Integrated System. In 2017, the Italian Ministry of Education paved the way towards an integrated system in ECEC services, aiming at increasing equity and quality for the 0–6 population. Merging the 0–2 and the 3–5 cycles, traditionally split, would result in the so-called Poli per l’ Infanzia: systems of shared spaces, resources and services. The integration is not meant only vertically, between the cycles, but also horizontally, with services and actors inhabiting the same territory. The integration between the cycles and the surrounding territory is far from being implemented, and the contextual diversities that characterize Italy at different scales pose several challenges. This contribution disentangles the concept of ‘horizontal integration;’ it highlights the relevance of contextual features and the resources that can be mobilized locally, especially in urban areas. The work assumes a peripherical neighborhood of Milan, Italy, as a case study and adopts an ethnographic approach for the analysis.

尽管教育贫困问题传统上是在社会和教育领域内解决的，但最近的跨学科研究强调了地域环境在促进社会包容和消除教育贫困方面的作用。本文以意大利综合系统为框架，对作为学习和教育环境的城市进行反思。2017 年，意大利教育部为幼儿保育和教育服务综合系统铺平了道路，旨在提高 0-6 岁人口的公平性和质量。将传统上分割的 0-2 岁和 3-5 岁周期合并，将形成所谓的 "Poli per l' Infanzia"：共享空间、资源和服务的系统。这种融合不仅是指周期之间的纵向融合，还包括服务和参与者在同一区域内的横向融合。周期与周边地区之间的融合远未实现，意大利不同尺度的环境多样性也带来了一些挑战。这篇论文对 "横向一体化 "的概念进行了分解，强调了环境特征的相关性以及当地（尤其是城市地区）可调动的资源。作品以意大利米兰的一个边缘街区为案例，采用人种学方法进行分析。

This research assesses safety perceptions and maps unsafe places and victimization experiences of both women and men university students in public spaces throughout Granada city, Spain. Survey data from 383 participants were analyzed, with 413 unsafe places mapped. Statistically, significant gender disparities were found, with women reporting greater insecurity, particularly at night, and experiencing higher frequencies of victimization, notably sexual violence. Spatially, the innovative Perceived Insecurity Points Score (PIPS) emphasizes findings by integrating environmental factors (EF), social factors (SF) and victimization experiences (V), offering a comprehensive assessment of how these factors overlap and influence individuals' experiences. Men identified significantly fewer unsafe locations than women, with only a third acknowledging their existence. Meanwhile, women reported a higher frequency of victimization incidents, particularly involving sexual harassment. The work captures what is often overlooked in official statistics: broader forms of unwanted behavior pose a significant threat to women, extending the shadow of the “hypothesis of sexual assault”.

本研究评估了西班牙格拉纳达市男女大学生对公共场所安全的看法，并绘制了不安全场所和受害经历地图。研究分析了 383 名参与者的调查数据，并绘制了 413 个不安全场所的地图。从统计数据来看，性别差异非常明显，女性表示更不安全，尤其是在夜间，而且受害频率更高，特别是性暴力。在空间上，创新性的 "感知不安全点评分"（PIPS）通过整合环境因素（EF）、社会因素（SF）和受害经历（V）来强调调查结果，对这些因素如何重叠和影响个人经历进行全面评估。男性发现的不安全地点明显少于女性，只有三分之一的男性承认存在不安全地点。同时，女性报告的受害事件频率更高，尤其是涉及性骚扰的事件。这项工作捕捉到了在官方统计中经常被忽视的问题：更广泛形式的不受欢迎行为对女性构成了重大威胁，扩大了 "性侵犯假设 "的阴影。
