What is the Ground? Continuous Maps for Grounding Perceptual Primitives
نویسندگان
چکیده
Analysis of the Symbol Grounding Problem has typically focused on the nature of symbols and how they tie to perception without focusing on the actual qualities of what the symbols are to be grounded in. We formalize the requirements of the ground and propose a basic model of grounding perceptual primitives to regions in perceptual space that demonstrates the significance of continuous mapping and how it influences categorization and conceptualization of perception. We also outline methods to incorporate continuous grounding into computational systems and the benefits of applying such constraints.

Meaningful language use rests on the grounding of the language in the nonlinguistic world and in the practices of language users. This grounding is built up and maintained in interaction, through Conversational Grounding, which is the interactive process with which interlocutors build mutual understanding; Justification, the ability to explain and provide reasons for one’s language use; and Ada...

Ontologies need to introduce some primitive symbols used for the definition of more complex ones. These primitive symbols have no formal definitions in the ontology, and as ontologies usually are incomplete axiomatizations, the semantics of the primitives remain ambiguous (Guarino 1998). This shifts the problem of semantic interoperability to the problem of how to ground such primitives. Ground...

To enable effective referential grounding in situated human robot dialogue, we have conducted an empirical study to investigate how conversation partners collaborate and mediate shared basis when they have mismatched visual perceptual capabilities. In particular, we have developed a graph-based representation to capture linguistic discourse and visual discourse, and applied inexact graph matchi...

In the past, grounding systems usually were modeled by an individual Resistor. This estimation is useful only at low frequencies, while in high frequencies, the inductance of the grounding system plays the main role to identify the phase and amplitude of that. In recent years, as wind farms grow rapidly throughout the world, the grounding system and ground impedance of wind turbine towers under...
متن کاملSymbol Grounding - the Emperor ' s New Theory of Meaning ? Morten
What is the relationship between cognitive theories of symbol grounding and philosophical theories of meaning? In this paper we argue that, although often considered to be fundamentally distinct, the two are actually very similar. Both set out to explain how non-referring atomic tokens or states of a system can acquire status as semantic primitives within that system. In view of this close rela...
