| Abstract: |
Reasoning over spatial descriptions involving relations that can be described
as left, right and inline has been studied extensively
during the last two decades. While the fundamental nature of these relations
makes reasoning about them applicable to a number of interesting problems, it
also makes reasoning about them computationally hard. The key question of
whether a given description using these relations can be realized is as hard
as deciding satisfiability in the existential theory of the reals. In this
paper we summarize the semi-decision procedures proposed so far and present
the results of a random benchmark illustrating the relative effectiveness and
efficiency of these procedures.
