Viewpoint Transformation Training System Based on Discovery of Relationships between Objects

Abstract

Although having multiple viewpoints is important for utilizing objects in various ways, some people can only focus on limited aspects of objects. An object’s viewpoint is regarded as its role, as seen from its relationships with other objects. To discover new roles by finding relationships with other objects, another object must be recognized. Thus, our study proposes a method of two steps that transforms viewpoints consisting of “finding other objects in a space (object discovery step)” and “considering roles based on the relationships between a target object and other objects (role discovery step).” In addition, our study constructs a viewpoint transformation training system to acquire multiple viewpoints in the mathematical world, where objects correspond to individual figures whose viewpoints are their roles viewed from the stances of other figures.
