The Generative Ai-Driven Sustainable Smart City (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The rapid rise of Generative AI is increasingly reshaping the field of urban computing, marking the next frontier of sustainable smart city research and practice. This book takes readers on an exploratory journey into the transformative potential of Deep Generative Models (DGMs), hybrid architectures, and Foundation Models (FMs) to redefine the future urban landscape. These technologies contribute to enhancing environmental sustainability, climate resilience, infrastructure performance, operational efficiency, spatial organization, and functional livability through forward-thinking approaches to urban planning, design, and management--often implemented via digital twins.

DGMs enable synthetic data generation, data augmentation, data imputation, scenario simulation, and predictive modeling, providing richer insights into complex urban systems. Hybrid architectures integrate generative and conventional models to improve robustness, scalability, and flexibility across diverse urban tasks. FMs extend these capabilities by facilitating knowledge generalization across datasets, supporting reasoning, and enabling adaptive decision-making under uncertainty. Strengthened by integrative frameworks and cross-disciplinary insights, these technologies offer powerful tools for developing sophisticated urban solutions. They advance how urban ecosystems are environmentally and strategically planned, efficiently and adaptively managed, aesthetically and functionally designed, and spatially and contextually organized.

Rich in conceptual frameworks, theoretical insights, operational models, applied innovations, practical case studies, and policy guidance, this book equips researchers, planners, designers, technologists, and policymakers to harness generative intelligence in shaping adaptive, context-aware, and continuously refined urban environments that are ecologically responsible, climate-resilient, and future-ready. Essential for anyone exploring the frontier of GenAI-driven urban development, it offers actionable insights to guide the next generation of sustainable smart cities.
