Representing Part-Whole Relations
Part-whole relations appear throughout human knowledge. Their ubiq-uity suggests that they play an important role in intelligence. We conjecture that the cognitive value of partonomic knowledge lies in its ability to support translation between representations at diierent levels of granu-larity. This permits more eeective problem solving by allowing reasoners to integrate the unique beneets tha...
متن کاملOn the Specification of Part-Whole Relations in Conceptual Modeling: An Empirical Study
Part-whole relation (PWR), as a fundamental element to model the real world, has long been concerned by researchers and practitioners. Theoretical work has been undertaken to develop the classifications of distinct types of part-whole relations (PWRs) and their properties in an attempt to clarify their semantics. There is no empirical evaluation, however, that supports whether it is necessary t...
متن کاملPart-whole Relations: the Prospects of Mereotopology
This is a brief overview of formal theories concerned with the study of the notions of (and the relations between) parts and wholes. The guiding idea is that we can distinguish between a theory of parthood (mereology) and a theory of wholeness (holology, which is essentially afforded by topology), and the main question examined is how these two theories can be combined to obtain a unified theor...
متن کاملA Taxonomy of Part-Whole Relations
A taxonomy of port-whole or meronymic relations is developed to explain the ordinary English-speaker’s use of the term “part of” and its cognates. The resulting clossificotion yields six types of meronymic relotions: 1. component-integral object (pedal-bike). 2. member-collection (ship-fleet), 3. portion-mass (slice-pie), 4. stuff-object (steel-car). 5. feature-activity (poying-shopping), and 6...
