There is considerable evidence that because of poor geographical accessibility, basic health care does not reach the majority of the population in developing nations. Despite the view that mathematical methods of locational analysis are too sophisticated for use in many of these nations, several studies have demonstrated the usefulness of such methods in the locational decision-making process. ...

This work details methods for visualizing and browsing a set of distributions of locational data derived from multi-modal analysis of a large video and audio dataset.

Locational reasoning plays an important role in many applications of AI problem-solving systems, yet has remained a relatively unexplored area of research. This paper addresses both theoretical and practical issues relevant to reasoning about locations. We de ne several theories of location designed for use in various settings, along with a sound and complete belief revision calculus for each t...

In this paper we study a natural special case of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) with point-locational-uncertainty which we will call the adversarial TSP problem (ATSP). Given a metric space (X, d) and a set of subsets R = {R1, R2, ..., Rn} : Ri ⊆ X, the goal is to devise an ordering of the regions, σR, that the tour will visit such that when a single point is chosen from each region, the ...
