Fragmentation and logical omniscience [PDF]

open access: yesNoûs, 2021
AbstractIt would be good to have a Bayesian decision theory that assesses our decisions and thinking according to everyday standards of rationality—standards that do not require logical omniscience (Garber, 1983; Hacking, 1967). To that end we develop a “fragmented” decision theory in which a single state of mind is represented by a family of credence ...

Logical omniscience as a computational complexity problem [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 12th Conference on Theoretical Aspects of Rationality and Knowledge, 2009
The logical omniscience feature assumes that an epistemic agent knows all logical consequences of her assumptions. This paper offers a general theoretical framework that views logical omniscience as a computational complexity problem. We suggest the following approach: we assume that the knowledge of an agent is represented by an epistemic logical ...

Fragmentation and Representation Processing: Two Distinct Approaches to Information Access, Deduction, and Logical Omniscience [PDF]

open access: yesManuscrito
