Retaining Consistency in Temporal Knowledge Bases

open access: closed, 2006
Retaining consistency for large knowledge bases is a difficult task. This holds especially in the case where the knowledge base comprise temporal knowledge and where the knowledge comes from independent and unreliable sources. In this paper we propose the use of temporal logics, i.e., CTL, to describe the background theory and the corresponding Kripke ...

A Finely-Interleaved Consistency Checking Method for Knowledge-bases

open access: closedInternational Journal on Artificial Intelligence Tools, 1995
An efficient method to determine consistency in a knowledge-base is described. The traditional generation and evaluation steps are interleaved to compute the differences between two consecutive knowledge-base states. The method employs an optimized update propagation algorithm to improve efficiency.

Improving Consistency Within Knowledge Bases

open access: closed, 1990
This paper shows how automatic symbolic classification of all knowledge objects in a knowledge base can alleviate the task of knowledge acquisition. It presents a knowledge representation structure, called knowledge space, that permits such symbolic classification. Simple and efficient algorithms which create the structure are also presented1.

Probabilistic consistency of knowledge bases in inference systems

open access: closed, 2005
We consider a probabilistic knowledge base represented by a conditional probability assessment on an arbitrary finite family of conditional events. Following the approach of de Finetti to conditional events, we use the concept of generalized atom to introduce a suitable matrix representing the truth values of the given conditional events.

Method for Restoring Consistency in Probabilistic Knowledge Bases

open access: closedCybernetics and Systems, 2018
ABSTRACTEnsuring consistency of knowledge systems is always one of the essential requirements because, without it, most of these systems become useless. Because of the importance, many studies have involved the restoration of consistency in knowledge systems.
