Using a Visual Routine to Model the Computation of Positional Relationships
Andrew Lovett, Ken Forbus · eScholarship (California Digital Library) · 2009
Modeling the encoding of visual stimuli is a complex, and often ignored, problem in computational models of visual and spatial problem solving.This paper outlines a toolkit for exploring encoding for two-dimensional visual scenes, Visual Routines for Sketches.The utility of this approach is shown by a new model for computing positional relationships, the Vector Symmetry model, that explains data from seven experiments and is more parsimonious than Regier & Carlson's (2001) AVS model.
