چکیده

Current spatial database systems offer limited querying capabilities beyond topological relations. This paper introduces a model for projective relations between regions to support other qualitative spatial queries. The relations are ternary because they are based on the collinearity invariant of three points under projective geometry. The model is built on a partition of the plane in five regions that are obtained from projective properties of two reference objects: then, by considering the empty/non empty intersections of a primary object with these five regions, the model is able to distinguish between 31 different projective relations.

Projective Relations in a 3D Environment

This paper presents a model for positional relations among bodies of arbitrary shape in three dimensions. It is based on an existing model for projective relations among regions in two dimensions. The motivation is to provide a formal qualitative spatial relations model for emerging 3D applications. Two sets of relations are defined: ternary projective relations based on the concept of collinea...

Refining Topological Relations between Regions Considering Their Shapes

Topological relations are sometimes insufficient for differentiating spatial configurations of two objects with critical difference in their connection styles. In this paper, we present the projective 9-intersection model, which refines topological relations into projective binary relations by considering projective properties of the objects’ shapes. This is indeed a reformulation of projective...

Modeling Visibility in 3D Space: a Qualitative Frame of Reference

This paper introduces and formalizes a frame of reference for projective relations in 3D space that can be used to model human visual perception. While in 2D space visibility information can be derived from the concept of collinearity (thus, as ternary relations), in 3D space it can be derived from coplanarity, which calls for quaternary relations. Yet, we can retain ternary relations by anchor...

Ternary Phase Diagram Modeling of Chiral Medetomidine Salts Using NRTL-SAC Model

Experimental determination of solubility and ternary phase diagram of chiral compound are of tedious and time consuming tasks, and in many cases, there is not enough experimental data for different enantiomeric compositions to access the experimental ternary phase diagram. Using thermodynamic models with predictive capability, having less dependency on experimental data, affords a great advanta...

Gorenstein projective objects in Abelian categories

Let $mathcal {A}$ be an abelian category with enough projective objects and $mathcal {X}$ be a full subcategory of $mathcal {A}$. We define Gorenstein projective objects with respect to $mathcal {X}$ and $mathcal{Y}_{mathcal{X}}$, respectively, where $mathcal{Y}_{mathcal{X}}$=${ Yin Ch(mathcal {A})| Y$ is acyclic and $Z_{n}Yinmathcal{X}}$. We point out that under certain hypotheses, these two G...
