The process of determining and maintaining the correct connection between a symbolic object identifier and its perceptual image, both referring to the same physical object, is called symbol anchoring.The dissertation presented here suggests a formal and general approach to the symbol anchoring problem, which enhances previous approaches in terms of generality and expressiveness.Cognitive roboticsKnowledge representationLogicSymbol anchoring problemText/Journal Article1610-1987
