商品描述

This book provides an overview of multiple aspects of spatial language understanding and explores recent trends of modeling based on very large foundational models and their applications. The authors address the following five main themes: spatial semantic representations in both symbolic and sub-symbolic spaces; spatial information extraction computational models; reasoning over spatial language; commonsense spatial understanding; and multiple modern and state-of-the-art downstream applications of spatial language understanding including dialogue systems, narrative discourse, and grounding language in the physical world with the multi-modal problem settings. One of the essential functions of natural language is to express spatial relationships between objects. Linguistic constructs can encode highly complex structures of objects, spatial relations between them, and patterns of motion through space relative to a reference point. The complexity of spatial language understanding and its importance in downstream tasks that involve grounding the language in the physical world has become evident and important to the natural language processing research community. In addition, this topic has recently attracted the attention of various sub-communities in the intersection of natural language, computer vision, and robotics.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

這本書提供了空間語言理解的多個方面的概述,並探討了基於非常大型基礎模型的建模最近趨勢及其應用。作者針對以下五個主要主題進行討論:符號和非符號空間中的空間語義表示;空間信息提取的計算模型;對空間語言的推理;常識性空間理解;以及空間語言理解的多個現代和最先進的下游應用,包括對話系統、敘事話語,以及在多模態問題設置中將語言與物理世界相結合。自然語言的一個基本功能是表達物體之間的空間關係。語言結構可以編碼物體的高度複雜結構、它們之間的空間關係,以及相對於參考點的空間運動模式。空間語言理解的複雜性及其在涉及將語言與物理世界相結合的下游任務中的重要性已變得顯而易見,並對自然語言處理研究社群至關重要。此外,這一主題最近吸引了自然語言、計算機視覺和機器人技術交叉領域中各個子社群的關注。
