The aim of this paper is to analyze how people build an internal representation of actions done by others by matching observable data (objects, events, spatial and temporal context) with knowledge and by making inferences about not observable (intention, goal, anticipation, and planning) data. For that purpose, we list the set of dimensions that define “what an action is” accompanied with their contextual aspects, and the heuristics used by the human cognitive system. Finally, we propose that processing objects properties in terms of function-to-patient relation between objects, and in terms of patient-to-function within objects, is a possible way to explain the context effects with respect to the fine-grained vs. the large-grained semantic organization of the spatial and temporal context.
