Starting with an updated description of Allen's calculus, the book proceeds with a description
of the main qualitative calculi which have been developed over the last two decades. It …

Many formalisms for qualitative spatial and temporal reasoning fit into a pattern exemplified
by Allen's temporal interval calculus. Constraint‐based reasoning using Allen's calculus can …

At the conference CiE 2005, the first author introduced a new model for analog
computations, namely interval-valued computations. In this model, computations work on the …

This paper argues for the use of conceptual spaces in qualitative spatial and temporal
reasoning. Conceptual spaces provide a natural framework for enriching the purely …

We propose to formally represent time with structured temporal objects. Structured temporal
objects denote related time intervals (and recursively, related temporal objects) which are …

Interval-valued computation is an unconventional computing paradigm. It is an idealization
of classical 16-, 32-, 64-etc. bit based computations. It represents data as specific subsets of …

To offer a generic frame which groups together several interval algebra generalizations, we
simply define a generalized interval as a tuple of intervals. After introducing the generalized …

To offer a generic framework which groups together several interval algebra generalizations,
we simply define a generalized interval as a tuple of intervals. An atomic relation between …

In this paper we propose a machine learning formalism based on generalized intervals. This
formalism may be used to diagnose breakdown situations in telecommunication networks …
