| description | The determination of a reasonable spatial analysis unit is an essential step in urban functional zone (UFZ) division, which significantly affects the results. However, most studies on the division of functional zones are based on excessively large spatial units, such as blocks or traffic analysis zones (TAZs), which easily overlook the detailed characteristics of urban regions and introduce bias to the research conclusion. To address this issue, a refined zone segmentation method, namely, the Voronoi diagram for the polygon method, was proposed to generate refined spatial analysis units. Afterward, the functional topics of the spatial analysis unit were classified by a multiclass support vector machine (SVM) to produce the final UFZ map, where the functional topics of each spatial unit were obtained by coupling latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA). To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, experiments were conducted in Beijing, China. The results indicated that the proposed segmentation method can generate fine-scale spatial units and provide fine-grained and higher accuracy UFZs (overall accuracy = 84%; kappa = 0.82). |
