Alan K. Mackworth. On Reading Sketch Maps. In Proceedings of the Fifth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, IJCAI 1977, pp. 598–606, MIT, Cambridge, MA, 1977.
A computer program, named MAPSEE, for interpreting maps sketched freehand on a graphical data tablet is described . The emphasis in the program is on discovering cues that invoke descriptive models which capture the requisite cartographic and geographic knowledge. A model interprets ambiguously the local environment of a cue. By resolving these interpretations using a new network consistency algorithm for n-ary relations , MAPSEE achieves an interpretation of the map. It is demonstrated that this approach can be made viable even though the map cannot initially be properly segmented. A thoroughly conservative, initial , partial segmentation is described . The effects of its necessary deficiencies on the interpretation process are shown. The ways in which the interpretation can refine the segmentation are indicated .
