  2. 1. Teaching mobile robots to use spatial words

    Author : Simon Dobnik; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; situated interaction; spatial descriptions; language and perception; perceptual grounding; dialogue; natural language semantics; machine learning;

    Abstract : The meaning of spatial words can only be evaluated by establishing a reference to the properties of the environment in which the word is used. For example, in order to evaluate what is to the left of something or how fast is fast in a given context, we need to evaluate properties such as the position of objects in the scene, their typical function and behaviour, the size of the scene and the perspective from which the scene is viewed.

    Abstract : Many attempts have been made to catch the essence of Joseph Conrad’s work by examining the contents of his ideas. This thesis argues instead that the important factor is the preferred spatial structures of his world-views and the interplay between them. READ MORE
