With the development of urbanization and the expansion of floating populations, rental housing has become an increasingly common living choice for many people, and housing rental prices have attracted great attention from individuals, enterprises and the government. The housing rental prices are principally estimated based on structural, locational and neighborhood variables, among which the relationships are complicated and can hardly be captured entirely by simple one-dimensional models; in addition, the influence of the geographic objects on the price may vary with the increase in their quantities. However, existing pricing models usually take those structural, locational and neighborhood variables as one-dimensional inputs into neural networks, and often neglect the aggregated effects of geographical objects, which may lead to fluctuating rental price estimations. Therefore, this paper proposes a rental housing price model based on the convolutional neural network (CNN) and the synthetic spatial density of points of interest (POIs). The CNN can efficiently extract the complex characteristics among the relevant variables of housing, and the two-dimensional locational and neighborhood variables, based on the synthetic spatial density, effectively reflect the aggregated effects of the urban facilities on rental housing prices, thereby improving the accuracy of the model. Taking Wuhan, China, as the study area, the proposed method achieves satisfactory and accurate rental price estimations (coefficient of determination (R2) = 0.9097, root mean square error (RMSE) = 3.5126) in comparison with other commonly used pricing models.

The logistic service in China's schools, especially in college schools, has become more and more socialized, which requires higher quality of the management to meet it. The performance evaluation about school logistic service in China includes six aspects: the effectiveness of the operation system, the quality of the school asset, the ability of the development, the service quality, the social contribution and the level of the management. This paper will introduce the current situation of logistic service management in China's schools, and then make an analysis of the school logistics performance management, followed by a design of performance evaluation index system of school logistics management, which includes 6 indexes and 42 subindexes, with the purpose of improving the quality of school logistics assets, ensuring sustainable development and perfecting the logistics management and economic efficiency. Finally, the paper will try to propose some suggestions on how to reform the school logistics service performance management in China and learn some useful experience from abroad.

Models for estimating urban rental house prices in the real estate market continue to pose a challenging problem due to the insufficiency of algorithms and comprehensive perspectives. Existing rental house price models based on either the geographically weighted regression (GWR) or deep-learning methods can hardly predict very satisfactory prices, since the rental house prices involve both complicated nonlinear characteristics and spatial heterogeneity. The linear-based GWR model cannot characterize the nonlinear complexity of rental house prices, while existing deep-learning methods cannot explicitly model the spatial heterogeneity. This paper proposes a fully connected neural network–geographically weighted regression (FCNN–GWR) model that combines deep learning with GWR and can handle both of the problems above. In addition, when calculating the geographical location of a house, we propose a set of locational and neighborhood variables based on the quantities of nearby points of interests (POIs). Compared with traditional locational and neighborhood variables, the proposed "quantity-based" locational and neighborhood variables can cover more geographic objects and reflect the locational characteristics of a house from a comprehensive geographical perspective. Taking four major Chinese cities (Wuhan, Nanjing, Beijing, and Xi'an) as study areas, we compare the proposed method with other commonly used methods, and this paper presents a more precise estimation model for rental house prices. The method proposed in this paper may serve as a useful reference for individuals and enterprises in their transactions relevant to rental houses, and for the government in terms of the policies and positions of public rental housing.
