PM₁₀ 농도는 시간 및 공간 의존성을 동시에 가지는 시공간 데이터이지만 현실적으로 연속적인 시공간 데이터를 획득하는 것은 쉬운 일이 아니다. 본 연구에서는 위성영상과 대기질 및 기상 관측 센서 데이터를 복합적인 딥러닝 모델에 적용하여 시공간 해상도를 향상시키는 모델을 설계하였다. 설계된 딥러닝 모델은 기상, 토지 이용 등 PM₁₀ 농도에 영향을 줄 수 있는 인자를 이용하여 학습하였으며, 대기질 및 기상 관측 데이터만을 이용하여 15분 단위의 30m×30m의 공간해상도를 PM₁₀ 영상을 생성하였다.

시간해상도와 공간해상도가 높은 영상 자료는 효과적인 식생의 모니터링을 위해서 필수적이다. 하지만 단일 센서를 통한 영상은 공간해상도와 시간해상도가 높은 자료를 동시에 제공할 수 없는 한계점이 있다. 최근에는 위성영상의 공간적 해상도를 높이고 시간해상도를 보완하기 위해서 시공간 융합연구가 진행되고 있다. 그 중에서도 FSDAF(Flexible spatiotemporal data fusion) 방법론은 위성영상의 각 밴드를 융합하는 방법으로 적절한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 FSDAF 융합기법을 활용하여 MODIS NDVI와 Landsat 영상으로 계산한 NDVI를 융합 후 검증을 실시하였으며 식생 계절 모니터링에서의 활용가능성을 제시하였다. 그 결과, 1월부터 12월까지 융합을 통해 NDVI 예측한 영상은 활엽수, 침엽수, 농지의 계절적인 특징을 잘 반영하고 있었다. 융합된 결과의 검증을 위하여 8월과 10월의 예측한 NDVI와 실제 값(Landsat NDVI) 간의 RMSE 값을 계산한 결과 각각 0.049와 0.085, 상관계수는 0.765, 0.642로 비교적 일치한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 활용된 FSDAF 시공간 융합 기법은 픽셀기반의 융합기법으로 다양한 공간스케일의 영상과도 융합 가능할 것이며 다양한 식생 관련 연구에 활용될 것으로 기대된다.

Taxi-demand forecasting and hotspot prediction can be critical in reducing response times and designing a cost effective online taxi-booking model. Taxi demand in a region can be predicted by considering the past demand accumulated in that region over a span of time. However, other covariates-like neighborhood influence, sociodemographic parameters, and point-of-interest data-may also influence the spatiotemporal variation of demand. To study the effects of these covariates, in this paper, we propose three models that consider different covariates in order to select a set of independent variables. These models predict taxi demand in spatial units for a given temporal resolution using linear and ensemble regression. We eventually combine the characteristics (covariates) of each of these models to propose a robust forecasting framework which we call the combined covariates model (CCM). Experimental results show that the CCM performs better than the other models proposed in this paper.

Purpose: To demonstrate the high-resolution numerical simulation of the respiration-induced dynamic $B_0$ shift in the head using generalized susceptibility voxel convolution (gSVC). Materials and Methods: Previous dynamic $B_0$ simulation research has been limited to low-resolution numerical models due to the large computational demands of conventional Fourier-based $B_0$ calculation methods. Here, we show that a recently-proposed gSVC method can simulate dynamic $B_0$ maps from a realistic breathing human body model with high spatiotemporal resolution in a time-efficient manner. For a human body model, we used the Extended Cardiac And Torso (XCAT) phantom originally developed for computed tomography. The spatial resolution (voxel size) was kept isotropic and varied from 1 to 10 mm. We calculated $B_0$ maps in the brain of the model at 10 equally spaced points in a respiration cycle and analyzed the spatial gradients of each of them. The results were compared with experimental measurements in the literature. Results: The simulation predicted a maximum temporal variation of the $B_0$ shift in the brain of about 7 Hz at 7T. The magnitudes of the respiration-induced $B_0$ gradient in the x (right/left), y (anterior/posterior), and z (head/feet) directions determined by volumetric linear fitting, were < 0.01 Hz/cm, 0.18 Hz/cm, and 0.26 Hz/cm, respectively. These compared favorably with previous reports. We found that simulation voxel sizes greater than 5 mm can produce unreliable results. Conclusion: We have presented an efficient simulation framework for respiration-induced $B_0$ variation in the head. The method can be used to predict $B_0$ shifts with high spatiotemporal resolution under different breathing conditions and aid in the design of dynamic $B_0$ compensation strategies.

This paper presents a comprehensive overview of recent model developments and practical issues in spatial downscaling of coarse resolution satellite-derived products. First, theoretical aspects of spatial downscaling models that have been applied when auxiliary variables are available at a finer spatial resolution are outlined and discussed. Based on a thorough literature survey, the spatial downscaling models are classified into two categories, including regression-based and component decomposition-based approaches, and their characteristics and limitations are then discussed. Second, open issues that have not been fully taken into account and future research directions, including quantification of uncertainty, trend component estimation across spatial scales, and an extension to a spatiotemporal downscaling framework, are discussed. If methodological developments pertaining to these issues are done in the near future, spatial downscaling is expected to play an important role in providing rich thematic information at the target spatial resolution.

This article presents a multi-dimensional spatial pattern analysis of crime events in San Francisco. Our analysis includes the impact of spatial resolution on hotspot identification, temporal effects in crime spatial patterns, and relationships between various crime categories. In this work, crime prediction is viewed as a classification problem. When predictions for a particular category are made, a binary classification-based model is framed, and when all categories are considered for analysis, a multiclass model is formulated. The proposed crime-prediction model (HotBlock) utilizes spatiotemporal analysis for predicting crime in a fixed spatial region over a period of time. It is robust under variation of model parameters. HotBlock's results are compared with baseline real-world crime datasets. It is found that the proposed model outperforms the standard DeepCrime model in most cases.

A drone has recently got attention as an instrument for weather observation in lower atmosphere because it can produce the high spatiotemporal resolution weather data even though the weather phenomenon is inaccessible. Sea fog is a weather phenomenon occurred in lower atmosphere, and has observational limitations because it occurs on the sea. Therefore, goal of this study is to analyze the vertical structures about inflow, development and dispersion of sea fog using the high-resolution weather data with the meteorological sensor-equipped drone. This study observed sea fogs in the west coast of the Korean peninsula from March to October 2021 and investigated one sea fog inflowed into the coast on June 8th 2021. θ_e - q_v diagrams (θ_e: equivalent potential temperature, q_v: water vapor ratio) and vertical wind structures were analyzed. At inflow of sea fog, moist adiabatically stable layer was formed in 0-300 m and prevailing wind was switched from south-southwesterly to west-southwesterly under 120 m. Both changes are favorable for sea fog on the location. θ_e and q_v plummeted in a layer 0-183 m. The inflowed sea fog developed from 183 m to 327 m by mixing with ambient atmosphere on top of sea fog. Also, strong mechanical turbulence near ground drove a vertical mixing under stable layer. At dispersion of sea fog, as θ_e on ground gradually increased, air condition was changed to neutral. Evaporation occurred on both bottom and top in sea fog. These results induced dissipation of sea fog.

이 연구에서는 작물 모니터링을 위한 시계열 고해상도 영상 구축을 위해 기존 중저해상도 위성영상의 융합을 위해 개발된 대표적인 시공간 융합 모델의 적용성을 평가하였다. 특히 시공간 융합 모델의 원리를 고려하여 입력 영상 pair의 특성 차이에 따른 모델의 예측 성능을 비교하였다. 농경지에서 획득된 시계열 Sentinel-2 영상과 RapidEye 영상의 시공간 융합 실험을 통해 시공간 융합 모델의 예측 성능을 평가하였다. 시공간 융합 모델로는 Spatial and Temporal Adaptive Reflectance Fusion Model(STARFM), SParse-representation-based SpatioTemporal reflectance Fusion Model(SPSTFM)과 Flexible Spatiotemporal DAta Fusion(FSDAF) 모델을 적용하였다. 실험 결과, 세 시공간 융합 모델은 예측 오차와 공간 유사도 측면에서 서로 다른 예측 결과를 생성하였다. 그러나 모델 종류와 관계없이, 예측 시기와 영상 pair가 획득된 시기 사이의 시간 차이보다는 예측 시기의 저해상도 영상과 영상 pair의 상관성이 예측 능력 향상에 더 중요한 것으로 나타났다. 또한 작물 모니터링을 위해서는 오차 전파 문제를 완화할 수 있는 식생지수를 시공간 융합의 입력 자료로 사용해야 함을 확인하였다. 이러한 실험 결과는 작물 모니터링을 위한 시공간 융합에서 최적의 영상 pair 및 입력 자료 유형의 선택과 개선된 모델 개발의 기초정보로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

Laser light microscopy enables observation of various simultaneously occurring events in living cells. This capability is important for monitoring the spatiotemporal patterns of the molecular interactions underlying such events. Two-photon excited fluorescence microscopy (two-photon microscopy), a technology based on multiphoton excitation, is one of the most promising candidates for such imaging. The advantages of two-photon microscopy have spurred wider adoption of the method, especially in neurological studies. Multicolor excitation capability, one advantage of two-photon microscopy, has enabled the quantification of spatiotemporal patterns of $[Ca^{2+}]_i$ and single episodes of fusion pore openings during exocytosis. In pancreatic acinar cells, we have successfully demonstrated the existence of "sequential compound exocytosis" for the first time, a process which has subsequently been identified in a wide variety of secretory cells including exocrine, endocrine and blood cells. Our newly developed method, the two-photon extracellular polar-tracer imaging-based quantification (TEPIQ) method, can be used for determining fusion pores and the diameters of vesicles smaller than the diffraction-limited resolution. Furthermore, two-photon microscopy has the demonstrated capability of obtaining cross-sectional images from deep layers within nearly intact tissue samples over long observation times with excellent spatial resolution. Recently, we have successfully observed a neuron located deeper than 0.9 mm from the brain cortex surface in an anesthetized mouse. This microscopy also enables the monitoring of long-term changes in neural or glial cells in a living mouse. This minireview describes both the current and anticipated capabilities of two-photon microscopy, based on a discussion of previous publications and recently obtained data.

Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) serves as a clinical gold-standard non-invasive imaging technique for the assessment of global and regional cardiac function. Conventional cardiac MRI is limited by the long acquisition time, the need for ECG gating and/or long breathhold, and insufficient spatiotemporal resolution. Real-time cardiac cine MRI refers to high spatiotemporal cardiac imaging using data acquired continuously without synchronization or binning, and therefore of potential interest in overcoming the limitations of conventional cardiac MRI. Novel acquisition and reconstruction techniques must be employed to facilitate real-time cardiac MRI. The goal of this study is to discuss methods that have been developed for real-time cardiac MRI. In particular, we classified existing techniques into two categories based on the use of non-iterative and iterative reconstruction. In addition, we present several research trends in this direction, including deep learning-based image reconstruction and other advanced real-time cardiac MRI strategies that reconstruct images acquired from real-time free-breathing techniques.
