Supporting Mobile Robot's Tasks through Qualitative Spatial Reasoning.
Pascal Rost, Lothar Hotz, Stephanie von Riegen · 2012
Qualitative spatial reasoning, ontological reasoning, cognitive robotics, knowledge-based systems applications In this paper, we present an application of qualitative spatial reasoning technologies for supporting mobile robot tasks. While focusing on detection of interaction ability, we provide a combination of the spatial reasoning calculi RCC-8 and CDC as well as their integration with OWL-based ontologies. An architecture that uses Prolog and complex-event processing implements our approach. We illustrate the results with a mobile robot scenario in a restaurant. 1
