Collaborative Assistance with Spatio-temporal Planning Problems
نویسنده
چکیده
The paper describes a collaborative assistance approach with spatiotemporal planning, which requires user’s active participation in the problem solving task. The proposed collaborative assistance system operates on a region-based representation structure, which allows for partial specification of constraints at different levels of granularity. Weakly specified constraints contribute on the one hand to high computational complexity when generating alternative solutions and on the other hand to large solution spaces. The paper introduces Partial Order, Neighboring Regions and Partial Order of Neighboring Regions heuristics, which allow for pruning of significant parts of the search space, and produce hierarchical structuring of the solution space. Resulting hierarchical organization of the solution space reflects human mental processing of geographic information. To reduce cognitive load during observation of solution space, filtering of certain aspects, set-oriented structuring and case-based reasoning approaches are introduced.

On modeling of large-scale environments for solving spatio- temporal planning problems
the paper introduces a cognitively motivated approach for structuring and representing of unfamiliar large-scale environments. The proposed regionbased representation facilitates collaborative spatio-temporal planning, where problem solving process is shared between a user and an assistance system. The problem domain is structured hierarchically into regions resembling human decision space. The...
متن کاملRegion-Based Representation for Assistance with Spatio-Temporal Planning in Unfamiliar Environments
In this contribution we present a cognitively motivated approach to an interactive assistance system for spatio-temporal planning tasks. Since mental spatial problem solving is known to be based on hierarchical representations, we argue for region-based representation structures that allow for structuring a complex spatio-temporal problem such that exploring and communicating alternative soluti...
متن کاملSMT Spatio-Temporal Planning
Solving real planning problems requires to consider spatial and temporal information. Indeed, to be solved more efficiently many real world problems need to take the action duration, the instants of effects occurrences, the instants of requiring preconditions. . . and the space in which the mission is accomplished by defining the different actions zones and know the path between these zones int...

This paper addresses a spatio-temporal configuration problem that consists of integrating a set of interdependent constraints. The problem’s scenario is set to a day at a trade fair during which meetings need be dynamically scheduled and assigned respective spatial locations on a map. For this type of configuration problem, mental problem solving is model-based, i.e. the problem is mentally sol...
