In this paper, we will propose a logic programming approach to design a frame-based language. The relationship among frame, logic and Prolog is our basic design issue. Frame is considered as a collection of slot-relations, and frame reference/inference procedure can be specified in logic form. Prolog is used to represent all of these concepts. Frame is encoded with Prolog facts and rules. This ...

This paper investigates the properties of the multiple-reference block motion field. Guided by the results of this investigation, the paper proposes three fast multiple-reference block matching motion estimation algorithms. The proposed algorithms are extensions of the single-reference simplex minimisation search (SMS) algorithm. The algorithms provide different degrees of compromise between pr...

It has been argued that people use multiple frames of reference (FORs) for representing and updating spatial relationships between objects in a complex environment. When there are conflicts among representations of multiple FORs, they compete to determine behavior. “Frame of Reference-based Map of Salience” theory (FORMS) suggests that FORs with high salience may be processed in priority. Here,...

It is known that the brain uses multiple reference frames to code spatial information, including eye-centered and body-centered frames. When we move our body in space, these internal representations are no longer in register with external space, unless they are actively updated. Whether the brain updates multiple spatial representations in parallel, or whether it restricts its updating mechanis...
