Definition
Situation Graph Trees (SGT) provide a deterministic formalism to represent the knowledge required for human behavior modeling.
Background
In many domains, high-level descriptions to represent the status of an environment are desirable. Describing a situation requires to conceptualize the knowledge about the possible actions of the actors involved in the environment and their possible interactions. Conceptual descriptions of different application domains like traffic analysis [1], parking lot security [2, 3], and human behavior recognition [4] are of primary importance. The conceptualization can proceed from simple descriptions (simple events) to complex descriptions (complex events). Following relations, concepts can be aggregated into more complex concepts. Hence, an event can be described as a sequence of simple events. To allow such an incremental description of the events, two main processes are required: (a)...
