The main goal is to develop a system which is able to \"imagine\" the scene in which a story takes place, inferring by means of sui table rules the items which are not explicitly named , in order to verify the relevance of knowledge about the physical environment in the process of stories understanding . The specific topic covered by this work i s the problem of objects instantiation and a set of rules for inferring the existence of an object is proposed.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/18","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/0018.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/18.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/bibtex/18","volume":{"slug":"1983","title":"Proceedings of the Eighth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1983","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1983/","year":1983,"location":"Karlsruhe, West Germany","dates":"","editors":"Alan Bundy","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Cognitive Modelling","track":"Cognitive Modelling","number":18,"pages":{"first":72,"last":73},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
