Research on the Revitalization of the Defensive Fortress of the Great Wall Based on the Adversarial Interpretive-Structure Model

Abstract

This article aims to formulate a revitalization strategy for the affiliated fortress of the Ming Great Wall. The Adversarial Interpretive-Structure Model (AISM) extracts the opposite hierarchical rules and obtains a pair of simplified hierarchical topology graphs. The directed line segments in the adversarial hierarchical topology graph represent the interrelationships between the elements, which are presented in a topological hierarchy and can easily compare the advantages and disadvantages of the revitalization factors, which provides a basis for subsequent revitalization strategy formulation. The adversarial hierarchical topology graph provides a new method for conserving and reusing architectural heritage. Key Words: adversarial hierarchical topology graph, fortress, architectural heritage, conservation and reuse
