• SNAP and SPAN: Towards Dynamic Spatial Ontology (2004, background): “The mereotopology of spatial regions also gives us the resources to speak about the relations of connectedness and separation between spatial regions, fiat boundaries, dimensionality, and other related notions (Cohn, Bennett, Gooday, and Gotts, 1997; Smith, 1997; Smith and Varzi, 2000; Cohn and Haza”
• Qualitative and Quantitative Spatio-temporal Relations in Daily Living Activity Recognition (2014, methodology): “These form a Jointly Exhaustive and Pairwise Disjoint (JEPD) set of relations and, as with RCC-5, RCC-3 holds between pairs of entities (tracked objects and human body parts) in n-dimensional Cartesian space.”
• Conceptual spatial representations for indoor mobile robots (2008, background): “The basic units of such a qualitative spatial representation are topological regions [3], which correspond to more or less clearly bounded spatial areas.”
