Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design
Journal Article
Crewe, L. Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design. Progress in Human Geography,

This paper explores the performative and affective affordances enshrined in contemporary fashion space. Fashion markets need to be placed in a much more serious conceptual way. Whilst much critical attention has been focused on the geographies of fas... Read More about Placing fashion: art, space, display and the building of luxury fashion markets through retail design.

International division of labor
Book Chapter
Lim, K. F. International division of labor. In D. Richardson, N. Castree, M. F. Goodchild, A. L. Kobayashi, & R. Marston (Eds.), International encyclopedia of geography: people, the earth, environment, and technology. Wiley-Blackwell

International division of labor refers to a conception of economic production as intrinsically transnational; of the interdependence between economic production and geographically-differentiated labor power in the first instance. ‘Old’ and ‘new’ vers...

Labor market
Book Chapter
Lim, K. F. Labor market. In D. Richardson, N. Castree, M. F. Goodchild, A. L. Kobayashi, & R. Marston (Eds.), International encyclopedia of geography: people, the earth, environment, and technology. Wiley-Blackwell

Labor markets are socially-constructed entities that facilitate the buying and selling of labor power. They are effectively political-geographic institutions, governed predominantly by state regulations that apply within specific territorial boundari... Read More about Labor market.

Regulation/deregulation
Book Chapter
Lim, K. F. Regulation/deregulation. In D. Richardson, N. Castree, M. F. Goodchild, A. L. Kobayashi, & R. Marston (Eds.), International encyclopedia of geography: people, the earth, environment, and technology. Wiley Blackwell

Economic regulation is dynamically entwined with deregulation. Contrary to the logic of market fundamentalism, producers and/or consumers do not always benefit from deregulation. Rational-choice theories of regulation have not impacted economic-geogr... Read More about Regulation/deregulation.

The colour of risk: an exploration of the IPCC's 'burning embers' diagram
Journal Article
Mahony, M., & Hulme, M. The colour of risk: an exploration of the IPCC's 'burning embers' diagram. https://doi.org/10.4245/sponge.v6i1.16075

This article tracks the historical emergence of a new visual convention in the representation of the risks associated with climate change. The “reasons for concern” or “burning embers” diagram has become a prominent visual element of the climate chan...

Classification accuracy comparison: hypothesis tests and the use of confidence intervals in evaluations of difference, equivalence and non-inferiority
Journal Article
Foody, G. M. Classification accuracy comparison: hypothesis tests and the use of confidence intervals in evaluations of difference, equivalence and non-inferiority. Remote Sensing of Environment, 113(8), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rse.2009.03.014

The comparison of classification accuracy statements has generally been based upon tests of difference or inequality when other scenarios and approaches may be more appropriate. Procedures for evaluating two scenarios with interest focused on the sim...

A review of diatom ?18O in palaeoceanography
Journal Article
Swann, G. E., & Leng, M. J. A review of diatom ?18O in palaeoceanography. Quaternary Science Reviews, 28(5-6), https://doi.org/10.1016/j.quascirev.2008.11.002

Measurements of diatom oxygen isotopes (?18Odiatom) hold the potential to provide an important additional source of palaeoceanographic information in regions depleted in carbonates. However, despite analyses of ?18Odiatom being carried out since the... Read More about A review of diatom ?18O in palaeoceanography.

A relative evaluation of multi-class image classification by support vector machines
Journal Article
Foody, G. M., & Mathur, A. A relative evaluation of multi-class image classification by support vector machines. IEEE Transactions on Geoscience and Remote Sensing, 42(6), https://doi.org/10.1109/TGRS.2004.827257

Support vector machines (SVM) have considerable potential as classifiers of remotely sensed data. A constraint on their application in remote sensing has been their binary nature, requiring multi-class classifications to be based upon a large number...
