“…The clustering validity analysis is conducted by utilizing a weighted Minkowski distance definition that takes into account the contribution of each attribute feature parameter [15]. The validity of clustering based on external or internal criteria relies on statistical assumptions, and under different assumptions and setting different parameters for the division of entropy coefficients for fuzzy clustering, the objects of data within a class are usually closer to each other than the distance between the objects of data belonging to different classes, defined as:…”

Based on the cluster analysis algorithm, this paper collects a large amount of sample data from Huizhou buildings and groups these samples using the cluster analysis algorithm so as to identify different categories of architectural culture types. By dividing the group similarity of each category of buildings, the village cultural characteristics related to each category of buildings are extracted, including information on architectural style, structural features, decorative elements and so on. The results show that the automatic cultural classification feature values are 1.2, 2.5, and 2.9, which highlight the unique characteristics of the Huizhou village culture. Especially in Hongcun and Pai Fang Lane buildings, the cultural features are more significant, with matrix classification degrees of 4.7 and 4.022, respectively, fully highlighting the cultural heritage of these buildings. In addition, the clustering analysis algorithm has only a 9.5% error rate, and the classification accuracies all exceed the high level of 0.9, showing its excellent performance in the extraction of various cultural features.

“…On the one hand, many studies have surveyed the transition of the dominant morphology in rural China [28,30,31], especially relative to hollowed villages and rural restructuring [32]. These studies focus on the change of rural construction land in terms of its quantity and morphology, as well as the transformation between construction land and other land use.…”

This study investigates the spatial expansion process, the de facto land use change, and their endogenous driving forces in the village of Fengzhuang since the 1990s. Fengzhuang is a specialized village in Hebei, North China, in which above 80% of rural residents are engaged in the manufacturing of mahogany furniture. Land use data were extracted from a participatory rural appraisal (PRA) survey conducted in 2014–2015. The results suggest that the land in Fengzhuang has been expanding rapidly under the influence of the informal furniture industry. The villagers transform their residential areas into family workshops and factories for the production of furniture. Most rural areas officially marked as residential are, in effect, used for industrial production, resulting in the informality of land use and circulation. The in-depth survey also reveals that the informality of the furniture industry, the bottom-up process of land development, and the evolution of government regulation are the major reasons leading to the de facto change of land use in Fengzhuang. This study offers a microscopic perspective of land use change, which helps to explore the formation and change of rural land use and actual functions, as well as the mechanisms behind them. These findings are expected to provide some implications for improving rural development strategies, rural planning, and governance in China’s specialized villages such as Fengzhuang.

“…Others studied the pattern characteristics of pigments (Sun et al 2019). Yin et al (2019) and Zhang et al (2020) discussed the construction and heritage protection of Kaiping Diaolou pigments and proposed some protection methods and measures. Zeng et al (2011) found that the decorative patterns of pigments in Kaiping Diaolou buildings can be roughly divided into four types: plant patterns, animal patterns, text patterns, and geometric patterns.…”

Restoration techniques were explored for the patterns, materials, and surface pigments of the pigments decoration art of Kaiping Diaolou and Villages, a world cultural heritage site in southern China. Field investigation was supplemented by scanning electron microscopy, microscopic Raman spectroscopy characterization, colorimetric tests, and tensile tests. Materials and concepts for the restoration of the Kaiping Diaolou pigments were analyzed. Raman spectroscopy was used to characterize the surface pigments display of pigments decorative patterns. The main colors of restoration included green, red, white, and blue. The green color was a mixture of colored copper arsenate minerals. The red color was made of hematite (Fe2O3). White was calcite, and blue was lapis lazuli or synthetic ultramarine. SEM revealed both pigments show similar flake flocculent section morphologies. UV accelerated aging experiments showed that the Ultraviolet absorber and antioxidants effectively inhibited the degradation of the interface matrix. The interface was less prone to cracking. The tension test showed that the bond stress reached a maximum value of 0.193 MPa at a curing temperature of 20 °C under 95% ambient humidity. The results provide strong evidence for pigment restoration in Kaiping Diaolou. This study also provides a scientific reference for the pigment conservation of other architectural decorations from the same historical period.
