    24/1/2015 Ministry of Education Republic of China (Taiwan) Chinese Language Centers The Republic of China(ROC) on Taiwan has for many years been home to numerous institutions devoted to the study of the Chinese Language. Perhaps this is one reason why the number of foreign students coming to the ROC for all levels of language study has been increasing for so long. Students find that in addition to being able to enjoy the benifits of language training facilities, there is a much to be learned from experiencing the blend of tradition and modernity found in Taiwan. Students can simultaneously observe traditional Chinese culture as well as enjoy the advantages of a modern, developed society. This, combined with ease of association with native speakers, is enough to make the ROC a fine Chinese language learning environment.

  • A Data-Driven Probabilistic Rainfall-Inundation Model for Flash-Flood Warnings
    water Article A Data-Driven Probabilistic Rainfall-Inundation Model for Flash-Flood Warnings Tsung-Yi Pan 1,*, Hsuan-Tien Lin 2 and Hao-Yu Liao 3 1 Center for Weather Climate and Disaster Research, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan 2 Department of Computer Science and Information Engineering, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan; [email protected] 3 Research Center of Climate Change and Sustainable Development, National Taiwan University, Taipei 10617, Taiwan; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +886-2-33661710 Received: 20 October 2019; Accepted: 27 November 2019; Published: 30 November 2019 Abstract: Owing to their short duration and high intensity, flash floods are among the most devastating natural disasters in metropolises. The existing warning tools—flood potential maps and two-dimensional numerical models—are disadvantaged by time-consuming computation and complex model calibration. This study develops a data-driven, probabilistic rainfall-inundation model for flash-flood warnings. Applying a modified support vector machine (SVM) to limited flood information, the model provides probabilistic outputs, which are superior to the Boolean functions of the traditional rainfall-flood threshold method. The probabilistic SVM-based model is based on a data preprocessing framework that identifies the expected durations of hazardous rainfalls via rainfall pattern analysis, ensuring satisfactory training data, and optimal rainfall thresholds for validating the input/output data. The proposed model was implemented in 12 flash-flooded districts of the Xindian River. It was found that (1) hydrological rainfall pattern analysis improves the hazardous event identification (used for configuring the input layer of the SVM); (2) brief hazardous events are more critical than longer-lasting events; and (3) the SVM model exports the probability of flash flooding 1 to 3 h in advance.

    Proceedings of the 8th Conf. Int. Forum Urban., D026, doi:10.3390/ifou-D026. True Smart and Green City? 8th Conference of the International Forum on Urbanism Conference Proceedings Paper Toward an Urban Frontier and the Inter-Linkage: The Taipei Scenario Tzen-Ying Jenny Ling Architecture Department, Tamkang University, No. 151, Yingzhuan Road, Tamsui District, New Taipei City, 25157, Taiwan * Author to whom correspondence should be addressed; Tel.: +886-262-156-56; Fax: +886-239- 59318; E-Mail: [email protected] Abstract: The hybridization or cross breeding of the regional spatial transformation creates an urban frontier that expresses the tectonic shifts focusing on urban activities change and population migration. The scalar shift that spans across the regional scale brings what lacks within the inter-linkage of “city” and “world” and look beyond the territorial division at large. In Taipei, the phenomenon of geographic concentration of specific sector and economic activity in the metropolitan areas imply the underlying characteristic expounded beneath that can be utilized. Size and growth rate of urbanization thru the population concentration highlight the presence of an intense redistribution, creating a frontier land in need of inter liking of a sort. The empirical results highlight the need for improved connectivity between the northern and other regions in Taiwan and the need to address two major issues--the need re-examine the management policy for land and industry development and the need to provide the suitable public facilities and services for the changing population structure. Other spatial paradigms such as networks or nodes may provide unconventional texture and visualizations of this region, which we can develop into a scalable set of strategies that allocate more localized considered operations to emerge.

  • INTRODUCTION MEMBERS National Taiwan Normal University Library
    INTRODUCTION "The Taiwanese Alliance of University Museums" ("TAUM" in short) began as an on-going network of coop- erative projects and professional friendships held between the university museums, historical archives, galleries, and libraries of the universities in Taiwan. The initiative began at the "2016 University Museum Conference" organized by the National Cheng Kung University Museum, where the representatives of participating universi- ties have achieved consensus related to the eventual establishment of the Alliance in the following May. Its first meeting was then held on August 23, 2017 at National Cheng Kung University Museum in Tainan. The mission of TAUM is to encourage and initiate smoother frequent cooperation and exchanges of experi- ences between university museums, historical archives, galleries, and libraries. TAUM welcome more members to use this platform. It also seeks for international connection and opportunities of cooperation for staff training, traveling exhibition, exchange of management experience, and joint researches.
