Ho, Sin-Yi (author), Hong, Jung-Hong (author)The recent advances of surveying and mapping technology has made the collection of 3D information increasingly easier. A variety of real-world phenomena nowadays can be modelled in a realistic way, which enables the development of many innovated applications (Liu Wei Zhe, 2020). Due to the rapid expansion of urban population and limited land...conference paper 2023

Qian, QK (author), Ho, Winky K.O. (author), Jayantha, Wadu Mesthrige (author), Chan, Edwin H.W. (author)The rapidly growing aging population is a global phenomenon imposing societal challenges on many cities. ‘Aging-in-place’ as a popular concept accommodates both the elderly desire to age in a familiar environment and adaptive old home modifications for aging. However, this concept has not been explored in-depth systematically in the urban...journal article 2022

Ho, Loan (author), de Boer, Victor (author), van Riemsdijk, M.B. (author), Schlobach, Stefan (author), Tielman, M.L. (author)Hybrid Intelligence (HI) is the combination of human and machine intelligence, expanding human intellect instead of replacing it. Information in HI scenarios is often inconsistent, e.g. due to shifting preferences, user's motivation or conflicts arising from merged data. As it provides an intuitive mechanism for reasoning with conflicting...journal article 2022

(author), Nyland, Kristina (author), Fan, Lulu (author), Tafoya, Daniel (author)NGC 4395 is a dwarf galaxy at a distance of about 4.3 Mpc (scale: ∼0.021 pc mas-1). It hosts an intermediate-mass black hole (IMBH) with a mass between ∼104 and ∼105 solar masses. The early radio observations of NGC 4395 with the very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) network, High Sensitivity Array (HSA), at 1.4 GHz in 2005 showed that its...journal article 2022

Jiang, Hanjie (author), Zhou, Y. (author), Ho, H.W. (author)Urban air mobility is a relatively new concept that has been proposed in recent years as a means of transporting passengers and goods in urban areas. It encompasses a diverse range of Vertical TakeOff and Landing (VTOL) vehicles that function more like passenger-carrying drones for on-demand transportation. Among them, the car-like VTOL is...journal article 2022

Ho, Sin-Yi (author), Hong, Jung-Hong (author)Regardless of whether explicitly recorded, every geographic data has various aspects about time. Especially for integrated applications, the temporal aspects of geographic data from different stakeholders play an extremely critical role. Ignorance of the temporal difference or valid time of the datasets may easily lead to unexpected and even...conference paper 2021
