Spatio-temporal Reasoning for Vague Regions
Abstract. This paper extends a mereotopological theory of spatiotemporal reasoning to vague ”egg-yolk” regions. In this extension, the egg and its yolk are allowed to move and ...

Fuzzy region connection calculus: Representing vague topological information
Qualitative spatial information plays a key role in many applications. While it is well-recognized that all but a few of these applications deal with spatial information that is a...

Question Answering with Imperfect Temporal Information
Abstract. A temporal question answering system must be able to deduce which qualitative temporal relation holds between two events, a reasoning task that is complicated by the fact...

An Algebraic Formulation of Temporal Knowledge for Reasoning about Recurring Events
We formulate an algebra of binary temporal relations between events the number of occurrences of which is unknown, but which are known to recur in time. Ontologically, we view the...

Rule-based reasoning about qualitative spatiotemporal relations
This paper is about a novel rule-based approach for reasoning about qualitative spatiotemporal relations among technology-rich autonomous objects, to which we refer to as artifact...
