Qualitative Kinematics: A Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
Qualitative spatial reasoning has seen little progress This paper attempts to explain why We provide a framework for qualitative kinematics (QK), qualitative spatial reasoning about motion We propose that no general-purpose, purely qualitative kinematics exists. We propose instead the MD/PV model of spatial reasoning, which combines the power of diagrams with qualitative representations Next we propose connectivity as the organizing principle for kinematic state, and describe a set of basic inferences which every QK system must make. The framework's utility is illustrated by considering two programs, one finished and one in progress We end by discussing the research questions this framework raises.

A Fuzzy Qualitative Framework for Indoor Rowing Kinematics Analysis
In this article an outline of a fuzzy qualitative framework for the indoor rowing kinematics analysis have been proposed. Main goal of introducing this fuzzy qualitative framework is to bridge the gap between high level of quantitative details obtained with various present – day sensory or video inputs and symbolic representation used by rowing experts. A Fuzzy qualification process of kinemati...
متن کاملSubstructure Model for Concrete Behavior Simulation under Cyclic Multiaxial Loading
This paper proposes a framework for the constitutive model based on the semi-micromechanical aspects of plasticity, including damage progress for simulating behavior of concrete under multiaxial loading. This model is aimed to be used in plastic and fracture analysis of both regular and reinforced concrete structures, for the framework of sample plane crack approach. This model uses multilamina...
متن کاملDesign Platform for Planar Mechanisms based on a Qualitative Kinematics
Our long term aim is to address the open problem of combined structural/dimensional synthesis for planar mechanisms . For that purpose, we have developed a design platform for linkages with lower pairs which is based on a qualitative kinematics . Our qualitative kinematics is based on the notion of Instantaneous Centers of Velocity, on considerations of curvature and on a modular decomposition ...
متن کاملA Forced Damped Oscillation Framework for Undulatory Swimming Provides New Insights into How Propulsion Arises in Active and Passive Swimming
A fundamental issue in locomotion is to understand how muscle forcing produces apparently complex deformation kinematics leading to movement of animals like undulatory swimmers. The question of whether complicated muscle forcing is required to create the observed deformation kinematics is central to the understanding of how animals control movement. In this work, a forced damped oscillation fra...
متن کاملRobot Control on Symbolic Trajectory Generation and Atomic Motion Behaviours
Intelligent connection of numeric data and symbolic or cognitive function plays a crucial role in AI robotics. This problem is also defined as symbol grounding or perceptual anchoring problem in different contexts. In this paper we consider this problem from fundamental robot kinematics, Qualitative kinematics of planar robots has been proposed in this paper based on aggregation operators and f...
