Book Description

Series: Studies in Fuzziness and Soft Computing | Publication Date: October 28, 2002

Geometric properties and relations play central roles in the description and processing of spatial data. The properties and relations studied by mathematicians usually have precise definitions, but verbal descriptions often involve imprecisely defined concepts such as elongatedness or proximity. The methods used in soft computing provide a framework for formulating and manipulating such concepts. This volume contains eight papers on the soft definition and manipulation of spatial relations and gives a comprehensive summary on the subject.

First Sentence:
Researchers in artificial intelligence have been arguing successfully that human reasoning about space is of a qualitative nature in most everyday situations and that therefore computer systems should support such a form of reasoning (see, e.g., [20]). Read the first page
