• Authors: Zhiwei Wei, Nai Yang,
• Abstract summary: Existing methodologies for tag maps primarily focus on tag layout at specific scales. We incorporate the negative spatial auto-correlation index into tag maps to assess the uniformity of tag size distribution. This enhancement involves iteratively filtering out candidate tags and selecting optimal tags that meet the defined index criteria.

• Abstract: The popularity of tag clouds has sparked significant interest in the geographic research community, leading to the development of map-based adaptations known as intrinsic tag maps. However, existing methodologies for tag maps primarily focus on tag layout at specific scales, which may result in large empty areas or close proximity between tags when navigating across multiple scales. This issue arises because initial tag layouts may not ensure an even distribution of tags with varying sizes across the region. To address this problem, we incorporate the negative spatial auto-correlation index into tag maps to assess the uniformity of tag size distribution. Subsequently, we integrate this index into a TIN-based intrinsic tag map layout approach to enhance its ability to support multi-scale visualization. This enhancement involves iteratively filtering out candidate tags and selecting optimal tags that meet the defined index criteria. Experimental findings from two representative areas (the USA and Italy) demonstrate the efficacy of our approach in enhancing multi-scale visualization capabilities, albeit with trade-offs in compactness and time efficiency. Specifically, when retaining the same number of tags in the layout, our approach achieves higher compactness but requires more time. Conversely, when reducing the number of tags in the layout, our approach exhibits reduced time requirements but lower compactness. Furthermore, we discuss the effectiveness of various applied strategies aligned with existing approaches to generate diverse intrinsic tag maps tailored to user preferences.

  This paper presents a simple but performant semi-supervised semantic segmentation approach, called CorrMatch. We observe that the correlation maps not only enable clustering pixels of the same category easily but also contain good shape information. We propose to conduct pixel propagation by modeling the pairwise similarities of pixels to spread the high-confidence pixels and dig out more. Then, we perform region propagation to enhance the pseudo labels with accurate class-agnostic masks extracted from the correlation maps.

DRS suppresses the attention on discriminative regions and spreads it to adjacent non-discriminative regions, generating dense localization maps. We also introduce an additional learning strategy to give a self-enhancement of localization maps, named localization map refinement learning.
