highlighted in terms of architecture of Modernism. According to the theory of modern architecture and Geschtalt Psychology, elementary geometrical forms and main spatial features were underlined and accepted as anthropomorphic principle of architecture. Even today main spatial characteristics are accepted as a key principle of architectural composition. However, architects and critics of contemporary – post-modern and deconstructive – architecture emphasize the value of architectural narrative achieved not only through perception of space, but also by its relationship to social and cultural meanings and subtext of architecture. A narrative, as architectural feature, is realized in some compositions of the deconstructivist and postmodern architecture, both worldwide and in Lithuania. Santrauka Vienas svarbiausių istorinės architektūros bruožų – geometriškumas – buvo išryškintas modernizmo architektūros teorijoje. Remiantis geštaltpsichologijos teorija, elementarios geometrinės formos ir pagrindinės erdvinės charakteristikos suvoktos kaip antropomorfinis architektūros aspektas: net ir šiandien jos laikomos architektūros kompozicijos pagrindu. Nepaisant to, šiuolaikinės postmodernizmo ir dekonstruktyvizmo architektūros kūrėjai bei kritikai akcentuoja erdvinio naratyvo, kuriamo ne tik erdvės percepcijos, bet ir erdvės santykio su socialinėmis ir kultūrinėmis reikšmėmis, svarbą. Naratyvo, kaip architektūros kompozicinės ypatybės, naudojamos dekonstruktyvizmo ir postmodernizmo architektūros kompozicijose, pavyzdžių galime aptikti tiek užsienyje, tiek Lietuvoje.

As a representation of Korea’s modern architecture, Kim Swoo Geun described the Space Group of Korea Building as an “enclosed but endless space”. The Space Group Building is currently Korea’s Registered Cultural Heritage No. 586. Its name was changed to Arario Museum in Space; since 2013, it has been used as a museum. This study aims to reveal what spatial features of the Arario Museum have value as cultural heritage to make its sustainable architectural message. This research will analyze spatial traits within thresholds, beyond the general spatial traits of the architecture itself. The threshold gives Arario Museum meaning as a registered cultural property of Korea. The fundamental methodology to analyze the issue of threshold is to document the architectural experience based on the architect’s interviews, sketches and diagrams for design intention and strategy. Kim’s space displays the unification of physical structure and invisible phenomenon and cognition. The definition of threshold and the elements that constitute it discussed in this research were those that cover such multileveled concepts as materials that constitute the threshold. In addition, the phenomenon and status of these elements extracted in such manner being actually dispersed was verified, and the obtained characteristics of the threshold can result in the following: the concealment, juxtaposition, and flexibility are ultimately expanded to the ambiguity which is unique to Arario Museum in Space. Concealment started from observing the surface of threshold itself, and juxtaposition is the relational interpretation among the various elements. After the analysis on the dispersion and contacts, the status and phenomena of the building’s thresholds were concluded as a flexibility connection to its heritage value.

In the Russian language the preposition “cherez (through)” is used in its typical contexts to refer to spatial characteristics in which an action or movement takes place. However, there are cases in the Persian language when there is no clear boundary among the spatial prepositions corresponding to the preposition “cherez (through)”, which causes difculty for Iranian learners to choose the correct one. At the same time one and the same Persian preposition can be expressed by different Russian prepositions which lead to regular mistakes in the speech of Iranian students. Tus, for instance, Iranian students use the preposition “az miyan-e” / (among) in the meaning of the Russian prepositions “cherez” (through), “mezhdu”, “ckvoz” (within) and “iz” (from), although these prepositions are different in meaning and function. In this article, the locations used in combination with the preposition “through” are systematically classifed to explain their specifc features. In addition, the ways of expressing the spatial meanings of the preposition “through” in the Persian language are addressed in order to raise Iranian learners’ awareness of possible mistakes. Te novelty of the article is in the attempt to compare semantic and spatial features of the Russian preposition “cherez (through)” with its correlates in the Persian language. Te fndings of this study can be of interest to RFL teachers, in particular in Iran, as they will highlight common mistakes in the speech of Iranian learners when using the preposition “through”, and to RFL textbook developers.

The paper analyses architectural compositions of various religious complexes – historical and contemporary – apart from their stylistic features. The most prominent ensembles under analysis have one noticeably common feature – spatial narrative. The foreseen sequence of forms of experience and spatial structure tell different religious narratives depending on which different aspects of faith were actualized in a given period. The analyzed examples stand in proof that suggestibility of religious aspects in sacral architecture are inseparable from their artistic suggestibility aspects. In some cases, these aspects are less related to architectural stylistic means, but have a direct connection to such components of architectural compositions as foreseen sequence of a visitor’s experience and semantics of particular forms, i.e. architectural narrative, which is achieved not only through the means of perception of space, but also by the relationship to social and cultural meanings and subtext of architecture. Straipsnyje aptariama įvairių religinės architektūros kompleksų – istorinių ir šiuolaikinių – kompozicija atsietai nuo jų stilistinių bruožų. Pasirinkti būdingieji žinomiausi įvairių laikotarpių ansambliai pasižymi viena kompozicine ypatybe – erdvės naratyvu. Numatyta formų patyrimo seka, erdvės sandara pasakoja skirtingą religinį pasakojimą, priklausomai nuo to, kokie tikėjimo aspektai buvo aktualizuoti konkrečiu metu. Analizuojami pavyzdžiai įrodo, kad religinių aspektų įtaigumas sakralinėje architektūroje yra neatsiejamas nuo meninės įtaigos aspektų. Kita vertus, tam tikrais atvejais šie aspektai yra mažiau susiję su stilistinėmis architektūros priemonėmis, bet turi tiesioginį ryšį su tokiomis kompozicinėmis priemonėmis, kaip numatyta lankytojo patyrimo seka ir formų semantika, t. y. erdvės naratyvo, kuriamo ne tik erdvės percepcijos priemonėmis, bet ir santykiu su socialinėmis ir kultūrinėmis reikšmėmis.

Previous studies have shown that when a crime occurs, the risk of crime in adjacent areas increases. To reflect this, previous grid-based crime prediction studies combined all the cells surrounding the event location to be predicted for use in model training. However, the actual land is continuous rather than a set of independent cells as in a geographic information system. Because the patterns that occur according to the detailed method of crime vary, it is necessary to reflect the spatial characteristics of the adjacent land in crime prediction. In this study, cells with similar spatial characteristics were classified using the Max-p region model (a spatial clustering technique), and the performance was compared to the existing method using random forest (a tree-based machine learning model). According to the results, the F1 score of the model using spatial clustering increased by approximately 2%. Accordingly, there are differences in the physical environmental factors influenced by the detailed method of crime. The findings reveal that crime involving the same offender is likely to occur around the area of the original crime, indicating that a repeated crime is likely in areas with similar spatial features to the area where the crime occurred.

Abstract. Rapid investigation and quantitative analysis are crucial for heritage conservation and renewal design. As an important category of architectural heritage - traditional settlements - with their large number and complex spatial characteristics, their spatial character patterns are an important support to assist settlement conservation and renewal design. However, the current means of analysis often requires manual data collection, secondary mapping of the collected data, extraction of individual elemental patterns and village boundaries. Then settlement boundary form, settlement density will be calculated by mathematical methods. The above methods are inefficient and prone to manual mapping errors, making it difficult to quantify and analyze a large number of traditional villages in a short period of time. Semantic segmentation is a computer vision technique for quickly segmenting different objects. Based on the collected remote sensing data of traditional villages, this paper established a dataset of semantic segmentation of spatial features of traditional settlements, segmenting village buildings, water systems, roads and plants. Using Transfer learning, data augmentation and other methods, a model was trained that can automatically segment elements of the villages. From the national traditional villages that have been announced so far, 60 traditional villages from different regions in the north and south were selected for analysis. The experiments show that the model established in this paper has an accuracy rate of above 86% in segmenting elements of villages, can effectively identify the location of different elements in remote sensing images, effectively improves the quantification rate of spatial features of settlements and saves the cost of mapping and data transcription. The results of the spatial characteristics of the 60 villages studied in this paper can also provide some theoretical basis and inspiration for the study, conservation, design and transformation of traditional villages.

Abstract Rumah Gadang is often referred to as Rumah Bagonjong. The typical gonjong roof and character in accordance with the identity of the people of West Sumatra. At present, many people do not understand the meaning of the gonjong roof. The purpose of this study was to determine and analyze the sustainability of the gonjong roof in West Sumatra by paying attention to the philosophy and symbolic meaning of the gonjong roof itself as seen from its application to the building of modern architecture. The method used is descriptive qualitative which starts from the field. Data and information obtained from the field are drawn from their meanings and concepts through descriptive analytical exposure and without using numbers because they prioritize the process. In the end, this research will reveal the facts, phenomena, and circumstances that occur. The results showed that the gonjong roof was 'forced' to survive in the midst of modern architectural changes, and this led to a shift in cultural meanings and values which actually threatened the original symbolic values. Rumah Gadang sering kali disebut dengan Rumah Bagonjong. Atap gonjongnya yang khas dan berkarakter sesuai dengan jati diri masyarakat Sumatera Barat. Pada masa sekarang, banyak masyarakatnya yang tidak paham akan makna atap gonjong. Tujuan penelitian ini untuk mengetahui dan menganalisis kebertahanan atap gonjong di Sumatera Barat dengan memperhatikan filosofi dan makna simbolik dari atap gonjong itu sendiri dilihat dari penerapannya pada bangunan arsitektur modern. Metode yang digunakan adalah kualitatif deskriptif yang dimulai dari lapangan. Data dan informasi yang diperoleh dari lapangan ditarik makna dan konsepnya melalui pemaparan secara deskriptif analitik dan tanpa menggunakan angka karena lebih mengutamakan proses. Pada akhirnya, penelitian ini akan mengungkapkan fakta, fenomena, dan keadaan yang terjadi. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa atap gonjong 'dipaksa' bertahan di tengah perubahan arsitektur modern sekarang ini, dan hal tersebut menyebabkan terjadinya pergeseran makna dan nilai budaya yang justru mengancam nilai-nilai simbolik yang masih asli.

Spectral and spatial characteristics of the encephalograms, registered while speech perception and production, are considered. Systematical bibliographical review is presented, including the articles studying the speech sources spectra and their location in the brain. Encephalography is selected as a basic experimental approach. Advantages of the magnetic encephalography, experimental difficulties and possible artifacts are noted. It is concluded that brain speech activity possesses a great variety of spectral and spatial features. The method of functional tomography based on magnetic encephalography data is proposed to quantitatively analyze this activity in detail. The method makes it possible to extract and precisely localize in space various spectral features of the brain activity studied in experiments on speech research.
