Towards sustainability: An assessment of an urbanisation bubble in China using a hierarchical - Stochastic multicriteria acceptability analysis - Choquet integral method

Abstract

Urbanisation bubbles have become an increasingly serious problem. Attention has been paid to the speed of urbanisation; however, the issue of quality has been neglected, particularly in the case of China. Therefore, the aim of this research is to evaluate China's urbanisation bubbles by employing a hierarchical -stochastic multicriteria acceptability analysis (SMAA) -Choquet integral method. In order to highlight regional disparities, we measure the urbanisation bubbles at a provincial level. Our study aggregates the urbanisation bubble indices using the Choquet integral preference model, and considers the interactions between various indicators. Furthermore, robust ordinal regression and SMAA are applied to resolve the robustness issues associated with the entire set of weights assigned to the urbanisation bubble composite indicator. In addition, by employing a multiple criteria hierarchy process, the study aggregates urbanisation bubble indices not only at the comprehensive level, but also at the intermediate levels of the hierarchy. Our findings suggest that the ranking of urbanisation bubbles is positively related to the level of regional development. This study contributes to the evaluation of regional urbanisation and sustainable development.

Spatial spillover effects of skilled migration on innovation in China

“…Evaluation at the provincial level enables the results from the SDM to be directly explained in the process of interpreting the territory. Meanwhile, it is reasonable to conduct the change from regional to provincial level, because the complexity in China's provinces is the same as their regions regarding their social relationships, quality and kinds of resources [ 91 ]. Governments at a provincial level have the powers to decide on innovation input, which is necessary for policy implications.…”

Temporal-Guided Knowledge Graph-Enhanced Graph Convolutional Network for Personalized Movie Recommendation Systems

“…In addressing the identified gaps in the existing literature, this study introduced the temporal knowledge graph recommender system (TKGRS), an innovative algorithm that synergistically integrates matrix factorization, graph convolutional networks (GCNs), and temporal dynamics. TKGRS aims to overcome the limitations of the current algorithms while establishing a new benchmark in personalized recommendation systems [7,9]. Initially, TKGRS uses matrix factorization techniques to create initial embeddings for users and items, capturing their linear relationships.…”

Research on Evaluation of Meteorological Disaster Governance Capabilities in Mainland China Based on Generalized λ-Shapley Choquet Integral

“…The fuzzy multi-attribute decision evaluation method was then used to derive each provincial area’s evaluation results [ 16 , 17 ]. However, the simple weighted average cannot capture the indicators’ redundancy and synergy [ 18 , 19 ]. When evaluating meteorological disaster governance capacity using fuzzy multi-attribute decision-making methods, it cannot merely be assumed that the attributes are independent of each other.…”
