Abstract

The Mental Image Directed Semantic Theory (MIDST) has proposed the knowledge representation language Lmd for facilitating intuitive humansystem interaction in the real world. The Lmd has employed the 'tempo-logical connectives (TLCs)' to represent both temporal and logical relations between two events, and the 'temporal conjunctions', a subset of TLCs, have already been applied to formulating natural event concepts, namely, those represented in natural language. This paper presents the theory of TLCs extended for formalizing natural spatiotemporal knowledge in general in order to facilitate intuitive human-system interaction such as comprehensible communication in natural language between ordinary people and home robots.
