Once a structured, content-based description is built for a diagram, it can be indexed for search, retrieval, and use. Whenever broad coverage grammars are built to parse a wide range of objects, whether natural language or diagrams, the grammars will overgenerate, giving multiple parses. This is the ambiguity problem. This paper discusses the types of ambiguities that can arise in diagram parsing, as well as techniques to avoid or resolve them. One class of ambiguity is attachment, e.g., the determination of what graphic object is labeled by a text item. Two classes of ambiguities are unique to diagrams: segmentation and occlusion. Examples of segmentation ambiguities include the use of a portion of a single line as an entity itself. Occlusion ambiguities can be difficult to analyze if occlusion is deliberately used to create a novel object from its components. The paper uses our context-based constraint grammars to describe the origin and resolution of ambiguities. It assumes that diagrams are available as vector graphics, not bitmaps.","PeriodicalId":113128,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1999 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126793348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main purpose for this is to present the usability of their systems. There are two advantages in presenting the system as an applet. One is reducing user's trouble, because an applet can be downloaded automatically and the user does not have to install the system. The other is reducing the version-up cost. Developers can provide the latest bug-fixed system any time. In order to make more effective the presentation of their applet-based systems on the web, developers should have prepared some instructions with their applets. Is the effort of describing the instruction fully rewarded? To the developers' regret, the web-users do not always read the instructions that come with the system. There are some users who operate the system without reading the instructions. In such case, these users may not understand the system features fully, or may even misunderstand the system. We propose an animated demonstration instead of these instruction. The animated demonstration for an applet means showing a demonstration of the applet's behavior. The demonstration is performed with a pseudo mouse cursor as if someone is operating. It is helpful for people who want to know how to operate applets.","PeriodicalId":113128,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1999 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages","volume":"17 2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129306472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is an expansion of the well-known NCE (context-free) graph grammar. Because it has a quite general embedding mechanism, it can be used to formalize the graph-syntax rules of visual objects with much flexibility. The composition of its production copies is discussed. It is theoretically and practically significant for defining graph-rewriting rules that can be (re)used to embed sub-graphs of particular structures, such as the feedback structure of control systems and the frequently-used sub-diagrams of program diagrams. The confluence property of NCE context-sensitive graph grammars is also studied. This property maintains that the result of a derivation does not depend on the order in which the production copies were applied. This is very important for guaranteeing the validity of the application of composite production copies and for developing efficient parsing algorithms. This formalization of subgraph reuse on, the basis of composite production copies is widely applicable to visual design languages based on graph grammars.","PeriodicalId":113128,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 1999 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1999-09-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130168316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
