Rough Sets in Approximate Spatial Reasoning
Abstract. In spatial reasoning the qualitative description of relations between spatial regions is of practical importance and has been widely studied. Examples of such relations a...

Spatial Agents Implemented in a Logical Expressible Language
In this paper, we present a multi-layered architecture for spatial and temporal agents. The focus is laid on the declarativity of the approach, which makes agent scripts expressive...

Atomicity vs. Infinite Divisibility of Space
In qualitative spatial reasoning, the last ten years have brought a lot of results on theories of spatial properties and relations taking regions of space as primitive entities. In...

Spatial Reasoning: No Need for Visual Information
One of the central questions of spatial reasoning research is whether the underlying processes are inherently visual or spatial. The article reports a dual-task experiment that was...

Multidimensional Mereotopology
To support commonsense reasoning about space, we require a qualitative calculus of spatial entities and their relations. One requirement for such a calculus, which has not so far ...
