Conditional Beliefs in a Bipolar Framework
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2013A framework for quantifying lower and upper bipolar belief is introduced, which incorporates aspects of stochastic and of semantic uncertainty as well as an indeterministic truth-model allowing for inherent linguistic vagueness at the propositional level.

This chapter first presents the static and dynamic rules of ranking theory. Then it shows how ranking theory solves the problem of iterated belief revisions.

A Conditional Logic for Belief Revision
1998In this paper we introduce a conditional logic BC to represent belief revision. Logic BC has a standard semantics in terms of possible worlds structures with a selection function and has strong similarities with Stalnaker's logic C2. Moreover, Gardenfors' Triviality Result does not apply to BC.

A conditional logic for defeasible beliefs
Decision Support Systems, 1988Abstract This paper provides a framework for representing beliefs by distinguishing between (i) the defeasible principles of a belief system, (ii) the propositions that are beyond reasonable doubt in a belief state, and (iii) the propositions ‘favored’ on the basis of defeasible principles and those propositions that are beyond reasonable doubt ...

Using Conditional Independence for Belief Revision
Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2022We present an approach to incorporating qualitative assertions of conditional irrelevance into belief revision, in order to address the limitations of existing work which considers only unconditional irrelevance. These assertions serve to enforce the requirement of minimal change to existing beliefs, while also suggesting a route to reducing the ...

Conditioned Belief Propagation Revisited
2014Belief Propagation (BP) applied to cyclic problems is a well known approximate inference scheme for probabilistic graphical models. To improve the accuracy of BP, a divide-and-conquer approach termed Conditioned Belief Propagation (CBP) has been proposed in the literature.

Acceptance, Conditionals, and Belief Revision
2005This paper bridges the gap between comparative belief structures, such as those induced by probability measures, and logical representations of accepted beliefs. We add, to natural properties of comparative belief relations, some conditions that ensure that accepted beliefs form a deductively closed set.

Desires, beliefs and conditional desirability
Synthese, 2014Does the desirability of a proposition depend on whether it is true? Not according to the Invariance assumption, held by several notable philosophers. The Invariance assumption plays an important role in David Lewis’ famous arguments against the so-called Desire-as-Belief thesis (DAB), an anti-Humean thesis according to which a rational agent desires a
