Chengyang Eight Village is renowned as a gathering site for the Dong ethnic group and the most prominent area for wooden architecture. Drum tower is an extremely important representative of wooden architecture that can influence the economic and tourism development of the region, providing functions of public activities, communication, and ethnic identity. However, widespread issues such as damage, abandonment, or disappearance threaten drum towers, which are crucial spiritual centres for Dong villages. Despite the social and functional significance of drum towers, there is a lack of comprehensive understanding of how people interact with them. This study aims to analyse Dong people's choice preferences in drum tower design, to examine the importance of 84 practices and influencing factors and propose a research path for study choice preferences. This study selected five villages among the Chengyang Eight Village as the research sites. Based on data from literature, field investigations, questionnaires and statistical analysis methods, this study analysed the choice preferences of local villagers regarding drum tower design. Five steps, 24 elements and 84 practices of drum towers were studied, and the impacts of the four influencing factors (Practicality, Economy, Decoration, and Belonging) on the three levels of the 84 practices were examined. Results showed that drum towers are a part of a complex, mutually reinforcing system where villagers and the towers mutually promote and influence each other. Villagers exhibited ambivalence towards drum tower design, navigating between deep-rooted traditions and evolving functional needs in contemporary contexts. Drawing on the Space-Behaviour Interaction Theory, this study examined the interaction between villagers and drum towers through a comprehensive approach of qualitative and quantitative methods, and established a research path for choice preferences. This study significantly enriches the discourse on minority village studies and traditional architecture, and provides valuable references for cultural heritage preservation and policy formulation.

城阳八村是侗族的聚集地，也是木结构建筑最突出的地区。鼓楼是影响该地区经济和旅游发展的木结构建筑的极其重要的代表，具有公共活动、交流和民族认同的功能。然而，作为侗族村寨重要的精神中心，鼓楼普遍存在着损坏、废弃或消失等问题。尽管鼓楼具有社会和功能意义，但人们对人们如何与它们互动缺乏全面的了解。本研究旨在分析侗族人在鼓楼设计中的选择偏好，考察84项实践的重要性及其影响因素，并提出研究选择偏好的研究路径。本研究选取城阳八村中的五个村作为研究地点。本研究采用文献资料法、实地调查法、问卷调查法和统计分析法，分析了当地村民对鼓楼设计的选择偏好。研究了五步二十四要素、84种鼓楼实践，考察了实用性、经济性、装饰性、归属感四个影响因素对84种实践三个层面的影响。结果表明，鼓楼是一个复杂的、相互促进的系统的一部分，村民和鼓楼相互促进、相互影响。村民们对鼓楼的设计表现出矛盾的态度，在根深蒂固的传统和当代环境中不断发展的功能需求之间进行导航。本研究借鉴空间行为互动理论，采用定性与定量相结合的方法，对村民与鼓楼的互动进行考察，构建了村民选择偏好的研究路径。本研究丰富了少数民族村落研究和传统建筑的话语，为文化遗产保护和政策制定提供了有价值的参考。

Studies have shown that a well-designed urban environment can have the same stress-reducing capacity as the natural environment. This may provide an opportunity to improve population health. In this study, we used a combination of traditional interviews and biosensing techniques to simulate the effects of living streets on emotional states within the First Ring Road of Chengdu City, and then scientifically analyzed the health effects of street environments. Within the First Ring Road of Chengdu City, we extracted the characteristics of the street environment through real-life perception experiments, and extensively photographed and sampled the living streets in the main urban area of Chengdu City, and collected the Electroencephalogram (EEG) signals of the people when they viewed different street photographs, so as to analyze the correlation between the characteristics of the street environment and the mental health of the people. The results show that the environmental characteristics of living streets that affect people's psychological perception are: green looking ratio, motor vehicle presence rate, degree of walkability, environmental complexity, building enclosure, facility distribution rate, sky visibility, elevation permeability, slow-moving occurrences and color richness. Motor vehicle presence rate and environmental complexity had a significant positive correlation with boredom, elevation permeability had a significant positive correlation with engagement mood, green looking ratio and building enclosure had a significant positive correlation with interest mood, and environmental complexity had a significant negative correlation with interest mood.

研究表明，设计良好的城市环境具有与自然环境相同的减压能力。这可能为改善人口健康提供机会。本研究采用传统访谈和生物传感技术相结合的方法，模拟成都市一环内生活街道对情绪状态的影响，并科学分析街道环境对健康的影响。在成都市一环内，我们通过现实感知实验提取街道环境特征，并对成都市主城区的生活街道进行广泛的拍摄和采样，采集人们在观看不同街道照片时的脑电图（EEG）信号，分析街道环境特征与人们心理健康的相关性。结果表明：影响人们心理感知的生活街道环境特征有：绿化率、机动车出勤率、可步行性、环境复杂性、建筑围护性、设施分布率、天空能见度、高程通透性、慢行现象和色彩丰富度。机动车出现率和环境复杂性与无聊感呈显著正相关，立面通透性与投入情绪呈显著正相关，绿化观感率和建筑围护度与兴趣情绪呈显著正相关，环境复杂性与兴趣情绪呈显著负相关。

The preservation of linear cultural heritage currently stands as a critical issue within the realm of global cultural heritage protection. The integration of cultural and ecological factors, as well as protection policies and implementation strategies, are facing great challenges. In 2019, the linear heritage “the Great Tea Route” was added to the Tentative List of China's World Cultural Heritage, underscoring its cultural and ecological significance. This study presents the construction of an expansive cultural and ecological corridor network across the Shanxi Province section of the route, employing morpho-spatial pattern analysis, the MaxEnt model, and the MCR model to effectively integrate cultural and ecological resources. And explores the establishment of cultural landscape nodes and the enhancement of cultural and ecological services, advocating a community co-construction model. This not only facilitates the development of a corridor-based economy but also addresses administrative challenges, thus promoting the preservation and management of cultural and ecological resources. The network developed comprises 43 cultural ecology points, 86 cultural source points, and 21 ecological sources, forming a foundation for the corridor's conservation and use. This study aims to provide new insights for the sustainable management of linear cultural heritage and promote the comprehensive protection of resources.

线性文化遗产的保护是当前全球文化遗产保护领域的一个关键问题。文化与生态因素的整合、保护政策和实施策略都面临着巨大的挑战。2019年，线性遗产“大茶之路”被列入《中国世界文化遗产预备名录》，彰显了其文化和生态意义。通过形态空间格局分析、MaxEnt模型和MCR模型，构建了横跨山西段的文化生态廊道网络，有效整合了文化生态资源。探索建立文化景观节点，加强文化生态服务，倡导社区共建模式。这不仅有利于走廊型经济的发展，也解决了行政管理方面的挑战，从而促进了文化和生态资源的保护和管理。形成了43个文化生态点、86个文化源点、21个生态源点的生态网络，为廊道保护利用奠定了基础。本研究旨在为线性文化遗产的可持续管理提供新的思路，促进资源的综合保护。

With the implementation of the “rural revitalization” strategy, many traditional villages face the challenges of renewal and revitalization. A scientific and effective understanding of these renovation strategies is crucial in the renewal design process. This study integrates eye-tracking technology and subjective evaluation methods to construct a research framework for assessing cognitive preferences regarding architectural renovation strategies in traditional villages. Three villages in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, China—She Village, Lixiang Village, and Sujia Ideal Village—were selected as case studies. Subjective evaluation scores were obtained using a semantic differentiation (SD) questionnaire, and the weights of various evaluation dimensions were determined based on the analytic hierarchy process (AHP). Eye-tracking experiments recorded subjects' observation processes of different remodeling spaces, producing focus heatmaps, areas of interest (AOI) maps, and corresponding eye movement data. The comprehensive analysis of these two aspects provides a more thorough understanding and evaluation of renovation strategies in traditional villages: (1) In architectural renovation, the most effective strategies are ranked as follows: block addition, facade renovation, juxtaposition of old and new, and overall reshaping. (2) The metrics of richness and recognizability show significant correlations with eye-tracking data, suggesting their importance in comprehensive analysis. (3) Both high and low subjective evaluation scores attract attention, indicating the need to integrate subjective evaluation results with eye-tracking data for accurate judgment.

随着“乡村振兴”战略的实施，许多传统村落面临着更新与振兴的挑战。在更新设计过程中，科学有效地理解这些改造策略是至关重要的。本研究将眼动追踪技术与主观评价方法相结合，构建传统村落建筑改造策略认知偏好评估的研究框架。本文选取了江苏省南京市的三个村——中国社村、里乡村和苏家理想村作为案例研究。采用语义区分（SD）问卷获得主观评价分数，采用层次分析法确定各评价维度的权重。眼动追踪实验记录被试对不同重构空间的观察过程，生成焦点热图、感兴趣区域（AOI）图和相应的眼动数据。综合分析这两个方面，可以更加透彻地理解和评价传统村落的改造策略：(1)在建筑改造中，最有效的策略依次为：砌块增建、立面改造、新旧并置、整体重塑。(2)丰富度和可识别度指标与眼动追踪数据呈显著相关，表明其在综合分析中的重要性。(3)主观评价分数的高低都引起关注，需要将主观评价结果与眼动追踪数据相结合，进行准确判断。

The Huainan Salt Area was the most essential salt production and trade base in ancient China. The government had strict control over the essential tax source region and left behind numerous official documents. However, when comparing with the modern surveying maps, we found that the boundaries between salt districts were unclear, which was obviously contradictory to the principle of independence between salt districts in official documents. Therefore, this study used the 1920s’ historical map of the Huainan Area to extract vector data such as the canal and road networks and the location of salt settlements, and then used space syntax to describe the transportation network morphology and settlement distribution structure to respond to the contradictions with higher precision. It was found that at a 2000 m × 2000 m raster resolution, the measurements of the canal network were well correlated (p = 0.645, r = 30,000) with the salt settlement distribution. Moreover, the canal network was closer to a network-like than a tree-like structure, and vertical linkage emerged. The “government-supervised and merchant-managed” policy implemented in the Qing dynasty played an essential role, and it caused a big difference in the understanding of the salt industry system between folks and officials.

淮南盐区是中国古代最重要的盐业生产和贸易基地。政府严格控制主要税源地区，留下了大量官方文件。然而，通过与现代测绘图的比较，我们发现盐区之间的界线并不清晰，这与官方文件中盐区独立的原则明显矛盾。因此，本研究利用20世纪20年代淮南地区历史地图提取运河、道路网络、盐类聚落位置等矢量数据，再用空间句法描述交通网络形态和聚落分布结构，以更高的精度应对矛盾。在2000 m × 2000 m栅格分辨率下，运河网测量值与盐沉降分布具有良好的相关性（p = 0.645, r = 30000）。此外，运河网络更接近于网状结构，而不是树形结构，并且出现了垂直连接。清代实行的“官监商管”政策发挥了至关重要的作用，并造成了民间和官员对盐业制度的认识上的巨大差异。

In China, traditional village layouts are dynamic, harmoniously integrated with the natural environment, and rich in unique cultural characteristics. However, rapidly constructed villages often lack professional design, resulting in overly simple layouts and causing the villages to lose their traditional characteristics. Artificial intelligence holds the potential to alleviate this specific challenge. This study employs CGAN to generate comprehensive village layouts based on archetypal traditional villages, while also exploring parameters and network architectures to enhance result quality. The research address on traditional villages in southwestern Hubei, refining generative factors, introducing image-based geographic scales, and employing machine vision to address data scarcity. The key findings of this study includes: 1) The research explores a class of AI-generated evaluation metrics suitable for village layout generation. 2) It confirms that the combination of the Unet_256 generator with the LSGAN architecture yields the best results in image generation. 3) It is observed that the optimal generation results are achieved when the equivalent geographic scale of the image is 150 m × 150 m. The study validates that GANs can be effectively applied in the village layout, producing layout results that incorporate traditional local experiences. This provides a novel approach to village layout.

在中国，传统的村落布局是动态的，与自然环境和谐结合，富有独特的文化特色。然而，快速建设的村庄往往缺乏专业的设计，导致布局过于简单，使村庄失去了传统特色。人工智能有可能缓解这一特殊挑战。本研究利用CGAN在传统村落原型的基础上生成综合村落布局，同时探索参数和网络架构以提高结果质量。以鄂西南传统村落为研究对象，提炼生成因子，引入基于图像的地理尺度，利用机器视觉解决数据稀缺问题。本研究的主要发现包括：1)探索了一类适合村落布局生成的人工智能生成评价指标。2)验证了Unet_256生成器与LSGAN架构的组合在图像生成方面的最佳效果。3)观察到，当图像的等效地理尺度为150 m × 150 m时，生成效果最佳。研究验证了gan可以有效地应用于村庄布局，产生融合传统地方经验的布局结果。这为村庄布局提供了一种新颖的方法。

How to create the scenery is the key issue in ancient towns. In this study, 50 photos were collected and distributed through the Internet. First, 456 online questionnaires with 25,080 data were got. Respondents' favoritism was affected by gender, age, region, profession, and education. Second, SAM computer model was applied to image recognition of Wuzhen style photos, analyzing their visual elements. Third, SPSS software was used to analyze the correlation between subjective beauty degree score and objective landscape elements. Based on the coupled quantitative analysis of AI visual recognition and beauty degree score, it is found that the landscape elements that tourists cared most about are: water bodies, ancient buildings and boats. The proportions of the best landscape elements for the spatial sense of the ancient town are the sky ranged from 26.4% to 38.2%, water body ranged from 19.7% to 34.3%, and buildings ranged from 10.4% to 38.2%. This study reveals the pattern of different types of tourists' evaluation of the landscape to summarize the landscape construction strategy of ancient towns in Jiangnan accordingly. The results are not only benefit to the cultural tourism of Wuzhen, but can also be applied to many ancient towns in Jiangnan.

如何营造古镇风貌是古镇建设的关键问题。在这项研究中，收集了50张照片，并通过互联网分发。首先，获得456份在线问卷，25,080份数据。受访者的偏好受性别、年龄、地区、职业和教育程度的影响。其次，将SAM计算机模型应用于乌镇风格照片的图像识别，分析其视觉元素。第三，运用SPSS软件分析主观美度评分与客观景观要素的相关性。基于AI视觉识别与美度评分的耦合定量分析，发现游客最关心的景观要素为：水体、古建筑和船只。对古镇空间感影响最大的景观要素为天空（26.4% ~ 38.2%）、水体（19.7% ~ 34.3%）和建筑（10.4% ~ 38.2%）。本研究揭示了不同类型游客对江南古镇景观评价的格局，并据此总结出江南古镇景观建设策略。研究结果不仅有利于乌镇的文化旅游，也可应用于江南其他古镇。

In recent decades, rapid urbanization has introduced significant challenges to urban planning, exacerbated by ongoing urban expansion and population growth. Among these challenges is the critical need to enhance public safety and the living environment, driven by principles of human-centered design and sustainable urban development. To address this, this paper introduces a novel multi-objective optimization framework for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) facility layout, integrating multi-source data to support urban planning and manage public safety risks effectively. This framework uses corroborative multi-source data to analyze current EMS facilities and suggests improvements through preservation, expansion, and new facility introduction, carefully considering construction costs, resident usage efficiency, and access equity. A multi-objective evolutionary algorithm calculates Pareto optimal solutions for site selection, allowing for a balanced consideration of conflicting EMS siting objectives. Further solution set clustering enables decision-makers to quickly identify and refine strategies aligned with their preferences. We demonstrate the applicability of our framework through a quantitative and qualitative case study in Dangtu, China. The results reveal that our approach not only aids urban planners in making informed decisions that improve EMS facility accessibility but also ensures equitable use and enhances public safety in alignment with sustainable urban development goals.

近几十年来，快速城市化给城市规划带来了重大挑战，城市扩张和人口增长加剧了这一挑战。在这些挑战中，迫切需要在以人为本的设计和可持续城市发展原则的推动下，加强公共安全和生活环境。针对这一问题，本文提出了一种新的应急医疗服务（EMS）设施布局多目标优化框架，整合多源数据，有效支持城市规划和公共安全风险管理。该框架使用确凿的多源数据来分析当前的EMS设施，并建议通过保存、扩建和引入新设施来改进，同时仔细考虑建筑成本、居民使用效率和访问公平性。一个多目标进化算法计算帕累托最优解决方案的选址，允许一个平衡的考虑冲突的EMS选址目标。进一步的解决方案集聚类使决策者能够快速识别和改进与他们的偏好一致的策略。我们通过对中国当途的定量和定性案例研究来证明我们的框架的适用性。结果表明，我们的方法不仅可以帮助城市规划者做出明智的决策，改善EMS设施的可达性，还可以确保公平使用，并加强公共安全，与可持续城市发展目标保持一致。

Architectural heritage protection is closely linked to residents, but there is a lack of in-depth research on evaluation systems that integrate public feedback. This study used Importance-Performance Analysis (IPA) to explore residents' evaluations of local heritage protection in historic cities of China. Public survey data was used to assess a multi-dimensional framework for architectural heritage protection, covering aspects such as architecture, urban planning, economics, social factors, and property. The results show that while residents' overall evaluations of heritage protection dimensions are generally consistent across regions, significant differences exist in their assessments of specific indicators within these dimensions. This study integrates social exchange theory with heritage protection, creating a system to evaluate public perceptions, filling a research gap on resident participation and feedback in heritage protection. These findings offer crucial data support for policymakers, highlighting the importance of resident participation in developing sustainable and effective heritage protection strategies.

建筑遗产保护与居民密切相关，但缺乏整合公众反馈的评价体系的深入研究。本研究采用重要性-绩效分析法（IPA）探讨中国历史城市居民对当地遗产保护的评价。公众调查数据用于评估建筑遗产保护的多维框架，涵盖建筑、城市规划、经济、社会因素和财产等方面。结果表明，居民对遗产保护维度的总体评价在区域间基本一致，但对遗产保护维度内具体指标的评价存在显著差异。本研究将社会交换理论与遗产保护相结合，构建了一套评价公众认知的体系，填补了遗产保护中居民参与与反馈的研究空白。这些发现为政策制定者提供了重要的数据支持，强调了居民参与制定可持续和有效的遗产保护战略的重要性。

Accessibility is a crucial indicator for evaluating the spatial rationalization of commercial facilities in an area, impacting both commercial development and service efficiency. The objective of this research is to analyze the commercial space layout of Maotai Town in Guizhou Province, China, and to design an evaluation system for commercial space accessibility to enhance the efficiency of commercial space use. Firstly, POI (Point of Interest) Data Visualization Analysis will be employed to identify major commercial hotspots and areas not covered by their service reach. Secondly, the spatial accessibility of commercial spaces will be evaluated using Space Syntax and the Cost-Weighted Model in the topological grid dimension and geometric grid dimension. Finally, we will establish a Minimum Cumulative Resistance Model (MCR Model) based on the analysis results obtained to identify the resistance paths that tourists navigate within the research area. This method will provide a precise framework for evaluating the accessibility of commercial spaces throughout the area.
