A Core Ontology for Situation Awareness
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we present an ontology for situation awareness. One of our goals is to support the claim that this ontology is a reasonable candidate for representing various scenarios of situation awareness. Towards this aim we provide an explanation of the meaning of this ontology, show its expressiveness and demonstrate its extensibility. We also compare the expressiveness of this ontology with alternative approaches we considered during the design of the ontology. We then show how the ontology can be adapted to handle domain-specific situations by readily extending the core language. The extensions include adding subclasses, sub-properties and additional attributes to the core ontology. We conclude with an example of how the ontology can be used to annotate specific instances of a

Common Operational Picture and in consequence Situation Awareness, had been second class issue treated as a result of decision support procedures. This work concentrates mainly on developing methods for integrating battlefield data using ontologies and presenting such data in distributed GIS environment supported by reasoning methods. Such approach allows to organize and filter data using prede...

Over the past two decades, machine learning has led to substantial changes in Data Fusion Systems throughout the world. One of the most important application areas for data fusion is situation awareness to support command and control. Situation Awareness is perception of elements in the environment, comprehension of the current situation, and projection of future status before decision making. ...
متن کاملA Survey of Upper Ontologies for Situation Awareness
Situation awareness enables an intelligent agent to determine the meaning of perceived information in highly dynamic environments and to share the thereby discovered knowledge. Recently, ontology-based approaches to situation awareness have been proposed; some of them facilitate upper ontologies in order to provide a common vocabulary for collaborating agents and information sources. This paper...
متن کاملOntology-based situation awareness
The notions of ‘‘situation’’ and ‘‘situation awareness’’ have been formulated by many authors in various contexts. In this paper, we present a formalization of situations that is compatible with the interpretation of situation awareness in terms of human awareness as well as the situation theory of Barwise and Devlin. The purpose of this paper is to capture the situation theory of Barwise in te...
