Book A Study on Moving Objects  Representation and Reasoning

Download or read book A Study on Moving Objects Representation and Reasoning written by Yuniel Proenza and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-12-07 with total page 21 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Information Management, grade: 7.0, , language: English, abstract: There are some researches that explore and help to solve the representation of moving objects, mainly focused on improving DBMS and Query Languages for support spatio-temporal information storing and processing. Some other researches present techniques to analyze trajectories using data mining, indexing and math operations. More recently, with the emergence of the Semantic Web, the tracking of trajectories of moving objects became a fully applicational field and an open area for ontology applications. This paper explores moving objects representation and reasoning, aiming to find out foundations for a semantic representation of moving objects approach, for solving some existing problems when considering spatio-temporal aspects and semantically enrich query results over any stored information of moving objects.

Book Tools for Representing Moving Objects and Reasoning on their Semantics  A review

Download or read book Tools for Representing Moving Objects and Reasoning on their Semantics A review written by Yuniel Proenza and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2015-02-03 with total page 11 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Mathematics - Applied Mathematics, , language: English, abstract: The representation and understanding of the movement semantics of moving objects is a key issue for developing more accurate and efficient applications for Location Based Services, fleet control and so on. This field became very important for researching in the area of Database and Artificial Intelligence. There are many proposals related with algorithms and techniques for this vein, most of them have been implemented on tools, but they are not in sight of researching community and not available for widely usage. In this paper we present a survey on tools for representing moving objects and reasoning on their movement semantics, analyzing proposals from the database context to recent artificial intelligence ones. Our main goal is to clarify the existence and importance of those unknown tools with high impact on representing moving objects considering the semantics of the movement for spatio-temporal analysis.

Book A Study of Qualitative and Geometric Knowledge in Reasoning about Motion  Revision

Download or read book A Study of Qualitative and Geometric Knowledge in Reasoning about Motion Revision written by Kenneth Dale Forbus and published by . This book was released on 1981 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reasoning about motion is an important part of our commonsense knowledge, involving fluent spatial reasoning. This work studies the qualitative and geometric knowledge required to reason in a world that consists of balls moving through space constrained by collisions with surfaces, including dissipative forces and multiple moving objects. An analog geometry representation serves the program as a diagram, allowing many spatial questions to be answered by numeric calculation. It also provides the foundation for the construction and use of a place vocabulary, the symbolic descriptions of space required to do qualitative reasoning about motion in the domain. The actual motion of a ball is described as a network consisting of descriptions of qualitatively distinct types of motion. Implementing the elements of these networks in a constraint language allows the same elements to be used for both analysis and simulation motion. A qualitative description of the actual motion is also used to check the consistency of assumptions about motion. A process of qualitative simulation is used to describe the kinds of motion possible from some state. The ambiguity inherent in such a description can be reduced by assumptions about physical properties of the ball or assumptions about its motion. Each assumption directly rules out some kinds of motion, but other knowledge is required to determine the indirect consequences of making these assumptions.

Book Qualitative Spatio Temporal Representation and Reasoning  Trends and Future Directions

Download or read book Qualitative Spatio Temporal Representation and Reasoning Trends and Future Directions written by Hazarika, Shyamanta M. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2012-05-31 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Space and time are inextricably linked. Reasoning about space often involves reasoning about change in spatial configurations. Qualitative spatial information theory encompasses spatial as well as temporal representation and reasoning. Qualitative Spatio-Temporal Representation and Reasoning: Trends and Future Directions is a contribution to the emerging discipline of qualitative spatial information theory within artificial intelligence. This collection of research covers both theory and application-centric research and provides a comprehensive perspective on the emerging area of qualitative spatio-temporal representation and reasoning. This revolutionary new field is increasingly becoming a core issue within mobile computing, GIS/spatial information systems, databases, computer vision as well as knowledge discovery and data mining.

Book Attending to Moving Objects

Download or read book Attending to Moving Objects written by Alex Holcombe and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-31 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our minds are severely limited in how much information they can extensively process, in spite of being massively parallel at the visual end. When people attempt to track moving objects, only a limited number can be tracked, which varies with display parameters. Associated experiments indicate that spatial selection and updating has higher capacity than selection and updating of features such as color and shape, and is mediated by processes specific to each cerebral hemisphere, such that each hemifield has its own spatial tracking limit. These spatial selection processes act as a bottleneck that gate subsequent processing. To improve our understanding of this bottleneck, future work should strive to avoid contamination of tracking tasks by high-level cognition. While we are far from fully understanding how attention keeps up with multiple moving objects, what we already know illuminates the architecture of visual processing and offers promising directions for new discoveries.

Book Use of Representations in Reasoning and Problem Solving

Download or read book Use of Representations in Reasoning and Problem Solving written by Lieven Verschaffel and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-09-13 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within an increasingly multimedia focused society, the use of external representations in learning, teaching and communication has increased dramatically. Whether in the classroom, university or workplace, there is a growing requirement to use and interpret a large variety of external representational forms and tools for knowledge acquisition, problem solving, and to communicate with others. Use of Representations in Reasoning and Problem Solving brings together contributions from some of the world’s leading researchers in educational and instructional psychology, instructional design, and mathematics and science education to document the role which external representations play in our understanding, learning and communication. Traditional research has focused on the distinction between verbal and non-verbal representations, and the way they are processed, encoded and stored by different cognitive systems. The contributions here challenge these research findings and address the ambiguity about how these two cognitive systems interact, arguing that the classical distinction between textual and pictorial representations has become less prominent. The contributions in this book explore: how we can theorise the relationship between processing internal and external representations what perceptual and cognitive restraints can affect the use of external representations how individual differences affect the use of external representations how we can combine external representations to maximise their impact how we can adapt representational tools for individual differences. Using empirical research findings to take a fresh look at the processes which take place when learning via external representations, this book is essential reading for all those undertaking postgraduate study and research in the fields of educational and instructional psychology, instructional design and mathematics and science education.

Book Moving Objects

    Book Details:
  • Author : Damon Taylor
  • Publisher : Bloomsbury Publishing
  • Release : 2020-09-17
  • ISBN : 1350088633
  • Pages : 247 pages

Download or read book Moving Objects written by Damon Taylor and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-09-17 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving Objects deals with emotive design: designed objects that demand to be engaged with rather than simply used. If postmodernism depended upon ironic distance, and Critical Design is all about questions, then emotive design runs hotter than this, confronting how designers are using feelings in what they make. Damon Taylor's original study considers these emotionally laden, highly authored works, often produced in limited editions and sold like art – objects such as a chair made from cuddly toys, a leather sofa that resembles a cow, and a jewellery box fashioned from human hair. Tracing the phenomenon back to the 'Dutch inflection' that began with Droog designers like Jurgen Bey and Hella Jongerius, Taylor conducts an analysis of the development of Design Art and looks for its origins in the uncanny explorations of surrealism. Offering a critique of Speculative Design, and an examination of the work of designers such as Mathias Bengtsson, whose work involves 'growing' furniture inside computers, Taylor asks what happens when the tangible melts into the datascape and design becomes a question of mobilities. In this way, Moving Objects examines contemporary issues of how we live with artefacts and what design can do.

Book Kant

    Book Details:
  • Author : Paul Guyer
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2014-03-05
  • ISBN : 1135015635
  • Pages : 520 pages

Download or read book Kant written by Paul Guyer and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-03-05 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this updated edition of his outstanding introduction to Kant, Paul Guyer uses Kant’s central conception of autonomy as the key to his thought. Beginning with a helpful overview of Kant’s life and times, Guyer introduces Kant’s metaphysics and epistemology, carefully explaining his arguments about the nature of space, time and experience in his most influential but difficult work, The Critique of Pure Reason. He offers an explanation and critique of Kant’s famous theory of transcendental idealism and shows how much of Kant’s philosophy is independent of this controversial doctrine. He then examines Kant’s moral philosophy, his celebrated ‘categorical imperative’ and his theories of duty, freedom of will and political rights. This section of the work has been substantially revised to clarify the relation between Kant’s conceptions of "internal" and "external" freedom. In his treatments of Kant’s aesthetics and teleology, Guyer focuses on their relation to human freedom and happiness. Finally, he considers Kant’s view that the development of human autonomy is the only goal that we can conceive for both natural and human history. Including a chronology, glossary, chapter summaries and up-to-date further reading, Kant, second edition is an ideal introduction to this demanding yet pivotal figure in the history of philosophy, and essential reading for all students of philosophy.

This book was released on 2015-03-31 with total page 1120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The essential reference for human development theory, updatedand reconceptualized The Handbook of Child Psychology and DevelopmentalScience, a four-volume reference, is the field-defining work towhich all others are compared. First published in 1946, and now inits Seventh Edition, the Handbook has long been consideredthe definitive guide to the field of developmental science. Volume 3: Social, Emotional, and Personality Developmentpresentsup-to-date knowledge and theoretical understanding of theseveral facets of social, emotional and personality processes. Thevolume emphasizes that any specific processes, function, orbehavior discussed in the volume co-occurs alongside and isinextricably affected by the dozens of other processes, functions,or behaviors that are the focus of other researchers' work. As aresult, the volume underscores the importance of a focus on thewhole developing child and his or her sociocultural and historicalenvironment. Understand the multiple processes that are interrelated inpersonality development Discover the individual, cultural, social, and economicprocesses that contribute to the social, emotional, and personalitydevelopment of individuals Learn about the several individual and contextual contributionsto the development of such facets of the individual as morality,spirituality, or aggressive/violent behavior Study the processes that contribute to the development ofgender, sexuality, motivation, and social engagement The scholarship within this volume and, as well, across the fourvolumes of this edition, illustrate that developmental science isin the midst of a very exciting period. There is a paradigm shiftthat involves increasingly greater understanding of how todescribe, explain, and optimize the course of human life fordiverse individuals living within diverse contexts. ThisHandbook is the definitive reference for educators,policy-makers, researchers, students, and practitioners in humandevelopment, psychology, sociology, anthropology, andneuroscience.
