In this article, principles involving the intrinsic, deictic, and extrinsic use of spatial
prepositions are examined from linguistic, psychological, and AI approaches. First, I define …

The aim of previous attempts at connecting vision systems and natural language systems
has been to provide a retrospective description of the analysed image sequence. The step …

Four approaches towards the extraction of conceptual descriptions from image sequences
which all evolved from the same 1977 proposal are surveyed. After a critical evaluation of …

Multimodal interfaces combining natural language and graphics take advantage of both the
individual strength of each communication mode and the fact that several modes can be …

We propose a framework for the representation of visual knowledge in a robotic agent, with
special attention to the understanding of dynamic scenes. According to our approach …

This thesis describes a connectionist model which learns to perceive spatial events and
relations in simple movies of 2-dimensional objects, so as to name the events and relations …

Path planning is a fundamental problem in many areas, ranging from robotics and artificial
intelligence to computer graphics and animation. Although there is extensive literature for …

learning and spatiotemporal reasoning, Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 8 (1991) 65 …

Although image understanding and natural language processing constitute two major areas
of AI, they have mostly been studied independently of each other. Only a few attempts have …
