JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe objective of this study is to clarify the urban structures of creative industries in Amsterdam and Berlin. It focuses on the stratified scale of both the soft and hard aspects.
By the bibliographic survey and interview survey, the characteristics of macroscale was clarified that start-up companies are promoted, industrial clusters of creative industries are formed, and coworking spaces and research institutions are accumulated as macroscale characteristics.
By the bibliographic survey and field survey, as the characteristics of mesoscale, "Connective Space" which continuousing connects the public space and architecture, renovated office space for small enterprises was clarified, and located in the suburbs of the city.
By the field survey, the characteristics of microscale was clarified that space characteristics of "direction space" were classified to 2 types for public spaces: "Utilized Type" and "Adjoined Type".
In conclusion, urban structures of creative industries were clarified through the characteristics of Amsterdam and Berlin.View full abstractDownload PDF (5112K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSRough set theory (RST) can get decision rules (DRs) that express relationship between condition attributes and decision attributes. However, RST has a weak point that it is difficult to grasp conceptual structures (inclusion relations) among several DRs. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to combine RST and formal concept analysis (FCA) in order to make up for the weak points of RST, and propose analysis to find causal relation and inclusion relation that it is difficult to find by using two methods individually. Next, we developed a conceptual structure visualization system that executes two analytical methods simultaneously and projects DRs on Hasse diagram. Lastly, we verified usefulness of the system through comparing the results of analyses by using the system with the results without the system by using data in papers dealing with FCA or RST. And we confirmed that we can easily find conceptual structures not to be found by conventional methods with the system.View full abstractDownload PDF (2017K) -
--Concentrated on serif and sans-serif typefacesNao NAKATSUJI, Hiroshi ITO, Hisayasu IHARA2017 Volume 64 Issue 3 Pages 3_21-3_30

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThis study experimentally verified the differences in the similarity judgment of typefaces between experts and non-experts. Serif and sans-serif typefaces were used as the stimuli and the card arrangement method was employed to obtain the similarity data from distances among the stimuli on a two dimensional space. A significant difference was observed at the 5% level in the experts and the non-experts due to the evaluation by using the trace correlation coefficient for their configurations. In addition, we examined the correlation between the obtained similarity data and the boldness of each typeface. As for sans-serif typefaces, judgment by the experts shows a moderate correlation, while judgment by the non-experts shows a strong correlation. Due to this result, we found that the similarity judgment of sans-serif typefaces by the non-experts was greatly affected by their boldness.View full abstractDownload PDF (2121K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe objective of this study is to clarify the effectiveness of the screen structure on GUI of the touch panel for mental models building. The current study focused on the following four types of the screen structure of GUI as an experimental factor: (1) hierarchized screen, (2) hierarchized screen with tabs, (3) listed all function in one screen, (4) sequential screen. The building level of mental models was measured in terms of functional model and structural model, the lostness score, and the subjective rating on satisfaction. Results shows the (3) and (4) screen structures were better for building structural model. Regarding the level of functional model, there was no clear difference among 4 types. Additionally, (3) and (4) had better evaluation regarding the lostness score and the subjective rating.View full abstractDownload PDF (1580K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSUser experience (UX) is a concept that discusses various experiences of users while interacting with various products. Of late, UX is gaining increasing attention. Especially, designers and engineers dealing with mature products on the market, such as home appliances, are seeking to study UX so that products that provide new value to users can be created. This study aims to develop a method to predictively and quantitatively evaluate UX. We started framing a method for evaluating UX, and we attempted to quantify UX. UX is supposed to be affected by various factors and must be presumed to be constantly uncertain. Therefore, we built a smartphone application to collect the UX data and gathered 11,698 datasets. We then adopted the probabilistic approach based on these data. Through experimentation, the validity of the method was verified.View full abstractDownload PDF (1827K) -

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSThe purpose of this research is to reveal the future possible outcomes and to conduct the assessments on the elderly housing, planned and constructed by UDN cooperatives, associated with small and medium-sized enterprises. They were based on a series of UDN trainings and the establishment of maintenance standards through the discussions to improve the quality of elderly housing in Hokkaido, a snowy cold region. This research had taken place in 3 stages during the period of 2006~2013; stage 1: planning to design, stage 2: construction to completion, and stage 3: residential experience; In stage 1, the 4 themes, and 16 categories of the maintenance standard were reviewed, 4 themes and 19 categories were achieved. In stage 2, the new maintenance standard was developed based on 9 themes and 33 categories, and introduced original planning from UD standpoint. In stage 3, interviews were conducted to 2 elders. As a result, 80% of positive evaluation was gained with the discovery of future improvements. This practical method suggests that it is effective for improving the environment of elderly housing.View full abstractDownload PDF (1759K)
