In computer science and artificial intelligence, the parameter of time is of particular importance, e.g. for planning robot activity, natural language processing, and time-varying scene analysis. This work investigates the relationship between classic, first-order theories of point- and interval-based time structures, modal logics of corresponding structures, and their algorithmic representations. To make this relationship complete, a formalisation of Allen's famous algorithm, applicable to various structures of time, is presented along with its translation to modal logics. All in all, the book is a competent and comprehensive analysis of logical descriptions and algorithmic representations of time structures.Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence ;1047Artificial intelligenceMathematical logicArtificial Intelligencehttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I21000Mathematical Logic and Formal Languageshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/I16048Artificial intelligence.Mathematical logic.Artificial Intelligence.Mathematical Logic and Formal Languages.511.3Hajnicz Elzbietaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut548570BOOK996465855603316Time structures960941UNISA
