Situation Models: A Tool for Observing and Understanding Activity

Year: 2009
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: In this paper we describe the use of situation models for observing and understanding activity. Observing activity in natural environments can be an extremely complex perceptual problem. Situation models provide a means to both focus attention in such systems and to provide default reasoning to accommodate missing and erroneous observations. We briefly review the use of situations models in Cognitive Science and then describe how such models can be used to provide services based on observation of human activity. We present a layered component-oriented software architecture in which components for perception and action maintain a situation model for use in providing human services.
