In this paper, the conventional approaches are analyzed. Based on raster data areal objects, the authors propose two new methods for measuring similarity among spatial directions. One is to measure the similarity among spatial directions based on the features of raster data and the changes of distances between spatial objects, the other is to measure the similarity among spatial directions according to the variation of each raster cell centroid angle. The two methods overcome the complexity of measuring similarity among spatial directions with direction matrix model and solve the limitation of small changes in direction. The two methods are simple and have broader applicability.展开更多

In each step of AMFEM, the local refinement is performed basing on simple either edge-oriented residuals or edge-oriented data oscillations, depending only on the marking strategy, under some restriction of refinement. The main tools used here are the strict discrete local efficiency property given by Carstensen and Hoppe (2006) and the quasi-orthogonality estimate proved by Chen, Holst, and Xu (2009). Numerical experiments fully confirm the theoretical analysis.展开更多
