Toward Learning the Causal Layer of the Spatial Semantic Hierarchy Using SOMs
نویسندگان
چکیده
The Spatial Semantic Hierarchy (SSH) is a multi-level representation of the cognitive map used for navigation in largescale space. We propose a method for learning a portion of this representation, specifically, the representation of views in the causal level of the SSH using self-organizing neural networks (SOMs). We describe the criteria that a good view representation should meet, and why SOMs are a promising view representation. Our preliminary experimental results indicate that SOMs show promise as a view representation, though there are still some problems to be resolved.

Understanding images in terms of logical and hierarchical structures is crucial for many semantic tasks, including image retrieval, scene understanding and robotic vision. This paper combines robust feature extraction, qualitative spatial relations, relational instance-based learning and compositional hierarchies in one framework. For each layer in the hierarchy, qualitative spatial structures ...
متن کاملThe Spatial Semantic Hierarchy
The Spatial Semantic Hierarchy is a model of knowledge of large-scale space consisting of multiple interacting representations, both qualitative and quantitative. The SSH is inspired by the properties of the human cognitive map, and is intended to serve both as a model of the human cognitive map and as a method for robot exploration and map-building. The multiple levels of the SSH express state...

متن کاملAstrocytes in Molecular Layer of Cerebellum after Spatial Learning
Introduction: Previous studies have suggested that the cerebellum is a primary site of motor learning. The cerebellar cortex has a particular glial architecture with large astroglial cells. In addition, more recent works have revealed that astrocytes play a more active role in neuronal activity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the number of astrocytes in the molecular layer of rat's cere...
