A Generalized Framework for Reasoning with Angular Directions
نویسنده
چکیده
This extended abstract presents a new scheme for qualitative reasoning with directions between points in 2D-space, called Star-ontology(6). The current results of our study on the complexity issues for reasoning with incomplete/disjunctive information using this new ontology has been outlined here. We have also proposed a generalized framework Star-ontology(α) for an integer α, that could be specialized to many ontologies including some of the known ones like the 2D-Cradinal ontology for α=4, and the currently studied one for α=6. This generalization also points to an interesting direction for investigation in the field of spatio-temporal reasoning.

Qualitative Reasoning with Arbitrary Angular Directions
Agents operating in open fields, like robots, soldiers, rescue workers, or ships, may need to do qualitative reasoning with relative directions. We have introduced here a generalized framework for that purpose, with a parameterized angular zoning scheme (e.g., zoning with 60-degree or 90-degree). Such a parameterization of qualitative reasoning is a new direction, for an area that typically eng...
متن کاملClinical reasoning assessment through medical expertise theories: past, present and future directions
Exploration into the concept of "medical expert" dates back to more than 50 years ago, yet yielding three leading theories in the area of clinical reasoning, namely, knowledge structure, hypothetic-deductive, and dual process. Each theory defines “medical expert” in a dissimilar way. Therefore, the methods of assessment through which the experts are identified have been changed during the tim...

متن کاملDetermination of Fiber Direction in High Angular Resolution Diffusion Images using Spherical Harmonics Functions and Wiener Filter
Diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) MRI is a noninvasive imaging method of the cerebral tissues whose fibers directions are not evaluated correctly in the regions of the crossing fibers. For the same reason the high angular resolution diffusion images (HARDI) are used for estimation of the fiber direction in each voxel. One of the main methods to specify the direction of fibers is usage of the spher...
متن کاملPROPERTY ANALYSIS OF TRIPLE IMPLICATION METHOD FOR APPROXIMATE REASONING ON ATANASSOVS INTUITIONISTIC FUZZY SETS
Firstly, two kinds of natural distances between intuitionistic fuzzy sets are generated by the classical natural distance between fuzzy sets under a unified framework of residual intuitionistic implication operators. Secondly, the continuity and approximation property of a method for solving intuitionistic fuzzy reasoning are defined. It is proved that the triple implication method for intuitio...
