RT Conference Proceedings T1 Topological Properties in Ontology-based Applications A1 Serrano, Miguel Á. A1 Gómez Romero, Juan A1 Patricio Guisado, Miguel Ángel A1 García, Jesús A1 Molina, José M. AB Representation and reasoning with spatial properties is essential in several application domains where ontologiesare being successfully applied; e.g., Information Fusion systems. This requires a full characterization of the semantics of relations such as adjacent, included, overlapping, etc. Nevertheless, ontologiesare not expressive enough to directly support widely-use spatial or topological theories, such as the Region Connection Calculus (RCC). In addition, these properties must be properly instantiated in the ontology, which may require expensive calculations. This paper presents a practical approach to representand reason with topological properties in ontology-based systems, as well as some optimization techniques that have been applied in a video-based Information Fusion application.
