One of the key strengths of the region connection calculus (RCC) -- its generality -- is also one of its most important drawbacks for practical applications. The semantics of all ...

We introduce a new metaphor for learning spatial relations--the 3D puzzle. With this metaphor users learn spatial relations by assembling a geometric model themselves. For this pu...

One of the main challenges for the development of spatial information theory is the formalization of the concepts of space and spatial relations. Currently, most spatial data struc...
One of the essential functions of natural language is to talk about spatial relationships between objects. Linguistic constructs can express highly complex, relational structures ...

Spatial relations play a crucial role in model-based image recognition and interpretation due to their stability compared to many other image appearance characteristics, and graphs...
Spatial relations are essential for understanding the image configuration and modeling common sense knowledge. In most of existing methods, topological, directional and distance s...
Much work has been done in the area of qualitative spatial reasoning over the past years, with application in various domains. However, existing models only capture particular asp...
: Spatial relations are becoming an important aspect of spatial access methods because of the increasing interest on qualitative spatial information processing. In this paper we sh...
Since ancient times, people have devised cognitive artifacts to extend memory and ease information processing. Among them are graphics, which use elements and the spatial relations...
Stretch-A-Sketch is a pen-based drawing program that combines recognition of hand-drawn glyphs with constraint based maintenance of spatial relations. The recognition program iden...
