Research Abstract |
PLCA is a framework for qualitative spatial reasoning that treats spatial data such as images or figures qualitatively, not quantitatively like numerical data. PLCA provides a symbolic representation for spatial data using the simple objects and their relationships, and reasoning on this representation. In this study, we extended PLCA by adding the information on shapes of objects or that on superposing patterns of objects, which gave more expressive power to PLCA. We show the condition on which the corresponding figure exists for a given extended PLCA expression. Moreover, we apply the extended PLCA expression with superposition to an automatic multiple window placement system, which showed a possibility of practical application of qualitative spatial reasoning.
