摘要
城市的生长模型被开发了并且广泛地采用了在周围的环境上学习城市的扩大和它的影响。这些模特儿能在发展情形的城市的决策或分析被雇用。在这份报纸，我们提供城市的生长模型的系统的评论，包括城市的模型和联系理论和不同模型和他们的应用程序的普通框架的进化。城市的生长的三个典型的班也就是，为陆地使用 / 交通模型，细胞的自动机(CA ) 模型和基于代理人的模型建模，被介绍。他们的关系被解释，就他们的建模机制，数据要求和应用程序规模而言。基于广泛地利用的城市的 CA 模型，我们为改进建议了四个观点包括基本空间单位的调整，时间的上下文，支持模型比较的公共平台，和情形的加入分析。新机会(例如，开的社会数据和综合评价当模特儿) 出现了帮助模型开发和申请。
Urban growth models have been developed and extensively adopted to study urban expansion and its impact on the ambient environment. These models can be employed in urban policymaking or analyses of development scenarios. In this paper, we provide a systematic review of urban growth models, including the evolution of urban models and associated theories and the common framework of different models and their applications. Three typical classes of urban growth models, namely, the land use/transportation model, the cellular automata （CA） model and the agent-based model, were introduced. Their relationships were explained, considering their modelling mechanisms, data requirements and application scales. Based on the extensively utilized urban CA models, we proposed four perspectives for improvements, including the adjustment of the basic spatial unit, the incorporation of temporal contexts, public platforms to support model comparison, and scenario analyses. New opportunities （e.g., open social data and integrated assessment models） have emerged to assist model development and application.
