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...
Many temporal applications like planning and scheduling can be viewed as special cases of the numeric and symbolic temporal constraint satisfaction problem. Thus we have developed ...
Spatial relations are essential for understanding the image configuration and modeling common sense knowledge. In most of existing methods, topological, directional and distance s...
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...
Industrial diagnostics is an important application area for many AI formalisms. Temporal diagnostics, based on analyzing temporal relations between values of crucial variables, is...
