Relating Two Image-Based Diagrammatic Reasoning Architectures
نویسندگان
چکیده
To advance the understanding of different diagrammatic reasoning architectures that reason directly with images, we examine the relationship between Anderson's Inter-Diagrammatic Reasoning (IDR) architecture and Furnas' BITPICT architecture using the technique of cross-implementation. Implementing substantial functionality of each in the other, and noting what is easy and what is difficult, yields insights into the two architectures and such systems in general.

Operationalizing Diagrammaticity
In this contribution we present a model for a component of a diagrammatic reasoning system. For reasons of identifying elementary components for diagrammatic reasoning processes we introduce the notions of the elementary diagrammatic inference step (EDIS) and the elementary diagrammatic simulation step (EDSS) as the basic processes for diagrammatic reasoning. The EDIS comprises several descript...
متن کاملSpatial structures and visual attention in diagrammatic reasoning
The thesis addresses questions of relating diagrams and mental representations in diagrammatic reasoning through eye movement research. It proposes model-based representations of attention for improved human-computer cooperation. In particular, the thesis proposes in theory and details in practice a computational framework for live capture and analysis of eye movement data in diagrammatic reaso...
متن کاملDiagrammatic Reasoning about Allen's Interval Relations
we explore different ways in which a computational model of diagrammatic reasoning can capture imagery experiences which subjects reported in an experiment on spatial reasoning. The algorithmic reconstruction of this particular reasoning process suggests that computational models of diagrammatic reasoning should be formulated at different levels of abstraction. Four levels are distinguished ord...
متن کاملAugmenting Cognitive Architectures to Support Diagrammatic Imagination
Diagrams are a form of spatial representation that supports reasoning and problem solving. Even when diagrams are external, not to mention when there are no external representations, problem solving often calls for internal representations, that is, representations in cognition, of diagrammatic elements and internal perceptions on them. General cognitive architectures--Soar and ACT-R, to name t...
متن کاملConstructing Diagrams to Support Situation Understanding and Planning: Part 1: Diagramming Group Motions
Visual representations consisting of diagrammatic elements are ubiquitous in human problem solving. Diagrammatic Reasoning is a relatively new and challenging area of research in Artificial Intelligence and Human-Computer Interaction. The research described in this report is part of a larger project whose goal is to investigate a general Diagrammatic Reasoning architecture for problem solving. ...
