Abstract

In an intelligent man-machine interface, it is very effective to support human thinking and to be in communication in some intuitive fashion. For this, sharing experience between the party concerned, human operators(s) and the interface is essential. It is also necessary to keep mutual understanding in some conceptual levels. Here in the present paper, figures which are an aspect of concepts and form a basis of mental image are discussed.
