چکیده

The interplay between visual perception and natural language in humanmachine-interaction receives growing attention since it constitutes a prominent issue in many potential application areas. The aim of language-oriented AI research in this context is to achieve an operational form of referential semantics that reaches down to the sensoric level. In this contribution, we will focus on the evaluation of spatial relations which form the basis for spatial reference expressions in natural language. The algorithmic characterization of static as well as dynamic spatial relations between objects in a time-varying scene will be considered. The paper will present new results from the project VITRA (Visual Translator), where a natural language access to visual data has been investigated in di erent domains of application. R esum e La connexion entre la perception visuelle et le langage dans la communication homme-machine est de plus en plus d'actualit e parce que constituant un probleme majeur dans plusieurs domaines d'application. Dans ce contexte, le but de la recherche sur le traitement automatique du langage naturel est d'obtenir une forme op erationnelle de la s emantique r eferentielle, allant jusqu'au niveau sensoriel. Dans cette contribution, nous analysons l' evaluation des relations spatiales qui forment la base pour les expressions de r ef erence spatiale dans le langage naturel. Ensuite, nous consid erons la caract erisation algorithmique des relations spatiales statiques et dynamiques entre les objets dans une s equence d'images. Nous pr esentons ces nouveaux r esultats dans le contexte du projet VITRA (Visual Translator), dans lequel le probl eme de l'acc es en langage naturel a des donn ees visuelles a et e etudi e dans di erents domaines d'application.

Evaluation of Static and Dynamic Methods for Determining the Bearing Capacity of the Driven Pipe Piles (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Determination of the pile capacity is always a major concern for the safe geotechnical engineering design. Different direct and indirect methods have been proposed for determining pile bearing capacity such as static and dynamic approaches. Each method depends on the condition of the soil and type of pile as well as accessibility to necessary information. In this study bearing capacity of drive...

Reliability of Functional Balance Assessment Tests in Children aged 7-10 and its Correlation with Selected Anthropometric Parameters

Introduction: The present study evaluates reliability of functional balance assessment tests in children aged 7-10 and its correlation with selected anthropometric parameters. Methodology: Population of the study includes 80 students aged 7-10 (40 female and 40 male). The Sharpened Romberg Test was used for static balance, while timed up and go test, Tandem walk test, and Y test were used for ...

Development and Application of an ALE Large Deformation Formulation

This paper presents a complete derivation and implementation of the Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) formulation for the simulation of nonlinear static and dynamic problems in solid mechanics. While most of the previous work done on ALE for dynamic applications was mainly based on operator split and explicit calculations, this work derives the quasi-static and dynamic ALE equations in its si...

Is static spatial performance distinguishable from dynamic spatial performance? A latent-variable analysis.

There is disagreement among researchers about the distinction between dynamic and static spatial performance. Given that dynamic spatial performance is supposed to be important for some occupations, such as air traffic control (ATC), it is germane to have evidence about the likelihood of that distinction. In the present study, a battery of printed static spatial and reasoning tests were applied...

Static and dynamic axial crushing of prismatic thin-walled metal columns

In this paper, a novel approach is proposed to investigate the progressive collapse damage of prismatic thin walled metal columns with different regular cross sections, under the action of axial quasi-static and impact loads. The present work mainly focuses on implementation of some important factors which have been neglected in other studies. These factors include the effect of reducing impact...
