- Abstract:
-
By dynamic simulation of cellular automata (CA) models,global structures and their evolution of complex systems could be automatically reconstructed and projected.A neighbor configuration off cells is an essential part of a CA model which remarkably affects simulated results.Based on Moore neighbors with radius 1,2 and 3 respectively,the responses of simulations are detected and analyzed.This research demonstrates that the impact of cell neighbors includes three aspects: quantity of cells,spatial morphology and uncertainty.Small range of neighbors performs well in spatial morphology and uncertainty,but could prematurely terminate the simulating process; while larger range of neighbors performs poor in spatial morphology and uncertainty,but could continue the process over time.For an actual case study area,the selection of neighbor configurations needs global factors impacting system evolution fully considered.Moreover,the response characteristics on simulation of coastal land use changes presented in this research are also suitable for modelling the evolution of other spatial systems.
