Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons

Evolutionary Relationships through Genome Comparisons

Genome comparison is one of the excellent ways to interpret the evolutionary relationships between organisms. The basic principle of genome comparison is that if two species share a common feature, it is likely encoded by the DNA sequence conserved between both species. The advent of genome sequencing technologies in the late 20th century enabled scientists to understand the concept of conservation of domains between species and helped them to deduce evolutionary relationships across diverse...

Archival Research

Archival Research

Some researchers gain access to large amounts of data without interacting with a single research participant. Instead, they use existing records to answer various research questions. This type of research approach is known as archival research. Archival research relies on looking at past records or data sets to look for interesting patterns or relationships. For example, a researcher might access the academic records of all individuals who enrolled in college within the past ten years and...

Visual Agnosia

Visual Agnosia

Visual agnosia is a condition characterized by the inability to recognize visually presented objects despite having normal vision. For instance, a person with visual agnosia can describe the shape and color of an object but cannot identify or name it. This impairment does not affect their visual field, acuity, color vision, brightness discrimination, language, or memory. An example of this condition in a social setting is someone at a dinner party asking for "that silver thing with a round end"...

Spanning Openings in Brick Walls

Spanning Openings in Brick Walls

In brick wall construction, supporting structures are crucial for openings like windows and doors to maintain the integrity and support the weight of the wall above. These supports include lintels, corbels, and arches, each serving specific structural purposes.
Lintels are primary supports used to span openings and can be crafted from materials such as reinforced concrete, steel-reinforced brick masonry, or simple steel angles. These are straightforward to install and are typically concealed...

Area of Science:

Computational architecture
Digital humanities
Architectural history

Background:

Vernacular building studies traditionally rely on manual methods, risking selective interpretation.
Existing classifications of Singapore shophouses may not fully capture their complex history.

Purpose of the Study:

To develop and apply a computational framework integrating visual intelligence for reconstructing building genealogy.
To perform stylistic classification of Singapore shophouses using image analysis.
To offer a critical perspective on the multi-ethnic character of these historic buildings.

Main Methods:

A computational framework was developed, leveraging visual intelligence for data interpretation.
The framework was applied to 1,276 frontage images of historic shophouses in Singapore's Chinatown.
Image analysis techniques were used for stylistic classification.

Main Results:

The framework enabled a classification of Singapore shophouses that moves beyond established chronological orders.
New perspectives on the multi-ethnic influences on shophouse architecture were identified.
The study demonstrated the effectiveness of computational methods in architectural analysis.

Conclusions:

Computational frameworks with visual intelligence can enhance the study of vernacular architecture.
This approach provides a more nuanced understanding of Singapore's built heritage.
Interdisciplinary collaboration between computer science and human settlement studies yields significant insights.
