In reasoning about time and duration, re- searchers often use Allen's Interval Algebra. This algebra describes possible relations be- tween 1-D intervals. An interval can precede the other one, follow the other one, start the other one, etc. This algebra describes the re- lationship between different intervals in terms of words from natural language. To give a nat- ural language description of 2D images, it is desirable to develop a similar approach for de- scribing the relationship between 2-D objects in a picture. In their recent papers, Jim Keller and his collaborators proposed a new approach based on a simulation of a "force" between these objects. In this paper, we show that their force formula is theoretically optimal. |
