Reasoning about Hand-Drawn Sketches: An Approach Based on Intelligent Software Agents
نویسندگان
چکیده
Sketching is a powerful means to represent objects and reason on them. In this paper we describe an integrated environment, conceived as a multi agent system, that brings together sketch recognition functionalities and decision support facilities. In this environment, intelligent agents are exploited both for managing the process of recognition of the sketched objects, and for supporting users in solving decisional problems. We explain our approach and its potential by means of a running example taken from the domain of building’s safety.

Clustering Hand-Drawn Sketches via Analogical Generalization
One of the major challenges to building intelligent educational software is determining what kinds of feedback to give learners. Useful feedback makes use of models of domain-specific knowledge, especially models that are commonly held by potential students. To empirically determine what these models are, student data can be clustered to reveal common misconceptions or common problem-solving st...
متن کاملEnvisioning sketch recognition: a local feature based approach to recognizing informal sketches
Hand drawn sketches are an important part of the early design process and are an important aspect of creative design. They are used in many elds including electrical engineering, software engineering and web design. Recognizing shapes in these sketches is a challenging task due to the imprecision with which they are drawn. We tackle this challenge with a visual approach to recognition. The appr...
متن کاملOn the Semantic Labeling of Hand-drawn Sketches
We propose a preliminary study for the application of Computational Linguistics techniques such as the Semantic Role Labeling of natural languages (SRL) to the case of sketch understanding. The idea of our approach originates from a psychological experiment where two groups of students were asked to produce and then recognize hand-drawn sketches, respectively. The paper presents a procedure to ...
متن کاملModel-Based Reasoning Methods within an Ambient Intelligent Agent Model
Ambient agents react on humans on the basis of their information obtained by sensoring and their knowledge about human functioning. Appropriate types of reactions depend on in how far an ambient agent understands the human. On the one hand, such an understanding requires that the agent has knowledge to a certain depth about the human’s physiological and mental processes in the form of an explic...
متن کاملReasoning about Self and Others: Communicating Agents in a Modal Action Logic
We propose an approach to reasoning about conversation protocols within the framework of a logic-based agent language. We show how to embed a theory of communicative actions in the framework of a modal logic of action and beliefs, to specify software agents that, situated in a multi-agent environment, can interact with one another by a speech act based communication mechanism. Agents have their...
