We present a theory of a modeler's problem decomposition skills in the context of optimal reasonzng -- the use of qualitative modeling to strategically guide numerical explor...
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...
In the previous two decades, a number of qualitative constraint calculi have been developed, which are used to represent and reason about spatial configurations. A common property...
Abstract. Representing and reasoning about orientation information is an important aspect of qualitative spatial reasoning. We present a novel approach for dealing with intrinsic o...
Tracking vehicles in image sequences of innercity road traffic scenes still constitutes a challenging task. Even if a-priori knowledge about the 3D shape of vehicles, of backgroun...
