  2. Overview • Problem statement • QTC versus QTCs • QTCs Central Concepts Double-Cross Concept Generalization Concept Shape Similarity • QTCs versus Closely Related Calculi • Further Work

  3. Problem Statement Shape comparison is important in GIS (Systems and Science) Approaches Quantitative approach : Statistical Shape Analysis Qualitative approach Region-based approach global descriptors (e.g. circularity, eccentricity and axis orientation) Boundary-based approach string of symbols to describe the type and position of localized features (e.g. vertices, extremes of curvature and changes in curvature) The Qualitative Trajectory Calculus for Shapes (QTCs) Van de Weghe, N., 2004, Representing and Reasoning about Moving Objects: A Qualitative Approach, PhD Thesis, Belgium, Ghent University, 268 pp.

  4. QTC versus QTCs QTC QTC shape = QTCs

  5. QTCs Central Concepts Double-Cross Concept a way of qualitatively representing a configuration of two vectors Generalization Concept a way to overcome problems that are inherent on traditional boundary-based approaches

  27. QTCs Shape Similarity the relative number of different entries in the Ms

  32. Further Work • Handling breakpoints in QTCS using a snapping technique • Handling closed polylines (i.e. polygons) Oriented polygon handled as a polyline, with v1 = vn Non-oriented polygon 'every' orientation should be handled. But, what is 'every'? • Data reduction by selecting a minimal subgraph • Presenting changes by QTCS • From an Shape Matrix to a type of shape • Cognitive experiments
