A General Framework for Ampliative Inference Patterns

open access: yesCLEI Electronic Journal, 1998
Non trivial reasoning from contradictory premises is being acknowledged as one of the most important features in intelligent systems. Expert systems, planners and schedulers, and diagnosers, are almost always faced to potentially fallacious information ...

Observational Equivalence of Conditional Belief Bases

open access: yesProceedings of the International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference, 2023
In nonmonotonic reasoning, a conditional of the form ‘If A then usually B’ is typically accepted if a situation where both A and B hold is deemed to be more plausible, more probable, or less surprising, etc., than a situation where A holds, but B does ...

Towards a mental probability logic

open access: yesPsychologica Belgica, 2005
We propose probability logic as an appropriate standard of reference for evaluating human inferences. Probability logical accounts of nonmonotonic reasoning with SYSTEM P, and conditional syllogisms (MODUS PONENS, etc.) are explored.

Qualitative Mechanical Problem-Solving by Artificial Agents:

open access: yesProceedings of the International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference, 2022
Qualitative mechanical problem-solving (QMPS) is central to human-level intelligence. Human agents use their capacity for such problem-solving to succeed in tasks as routine as opening the tap to drink or hanging a picture on the wall, as well as for ...

Classical methods in nonmonotonic reasoning [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
In this paper we present and compare some classical problem solving methods for computing the stable models of a general propositional logic program. In particular linear programming, propositional satisfiability, constraint satisfaction, and graph algorithms are considered. Central to our approach is the representation of a logic program by means of a

Embedding Non-Ground Logic Programs into Autoepistemic Logic for Knowledge Base Combination [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the context of the Semantic Web, several approaches to the combination of ontologies, given in terms of theories of classical first-order logic and rule bases, have been proposed.

Applying Soundness Standards to Qualified Reasoning

open access: yesInformal Logic, 2004
Defining qualified reasoning as reasoning containing such loose qualifying words as 'probably,' 'usually,' 'probable, 'likely,' 'ceteris paribus,' and 'primafacie, Ennis argues that typical cases of qualified reasoning, though they might be good ...
