Visual Reasoning With Graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
A bstract Understanding diagrams is an important part of human cognition. Computer programs need to understand and reason using diagrams to communicate effectively with people. This paper explains how line graphs can be interpreted in a domain independent manner. We present a computer program called SKETCHY that reasons about physical phenomena visually by using line graphs. SKETCHY can interpret graphs to recover functional relationships, answer comparative analysis questions and generate qualitative descriptions using geometric models.

Comparison of Moral Reasoning among Students with and without Visual Impairment
Background and Purpose: Some research has examined the moral reasoning and judgment in students with special needs and has shown that these students are lagging behind their non-disabled counterparts in term of moral development. Very few studies have been done in the area of development of moral reasoning in individuals with visual impairment; so given the research vacuum in this context, the ...

متن کاملConcept Graphs without Negations: Standardmodels and Standardgraphs
In this article, we provide different possibilities for doing reasoning on simple concept(ual) graphs without negations or nestings. First of all, we have on the graphs the usual semantical entailment relation |=, and we consider the restriction ` of the calculus for concept graph with cuts, which has been introduced in [Da02], to the system of concept graphs without cuts. Secondly, we introduc...
متن کاملConceptual graphs at work : efficient reasoning and applications
This thesis describes original research in the field of knowledge representation and reasoning by presenting novel extensions to the Conceptual Graphs Model, which increase their reasoning capabilities and conceptual modelling applicability in Artificial Intelligence. Conceptual Graphs benefit from graph-based reasoning mechanisms, plug-in capabilities over existing data structures and good vis...
متن کاملExploring, Reasoning with and Validating Directed Graphs by Applying Formal Concept Analysis to Conceptual Graphs
Although tools exist to aid practitioners in the construction of directed graphs typified by Conceptual Graphs (CGs), it is still quite possible for them to draw the wrong model, mistakenly or otherwise. In larger or more complex CGs it is furthermore often difficult–without close inspection–to see clearly the key features of the model. This paper thereby presents a formal method, based on the ...
