Nonmonotonic Reasoning and Causation: Comment [PDF]

Cognitive Science, 1991
In a recent issue of Cognitive Science, * Yoav Shoham (1990) proposed a theory of causation based on a nonmonotonic logic of temporal knowledge. It is the purpose of this commentary to show that Shoham’s procedure is essentially isomorphic with a theory of causal ordering that requires no special nonmonotonic logic. Although this latter causal ordering

Data‐Driven Modeling of Forces Exerted by Pneumatic Actuators for a Pediatric Exosuit

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This work presents the experimental analysis and data‐driven modeling of the interaction forces between soft pneumatic actuators designed to assist upper‐extremity motion in a pediatric exosuit and an engineered test rig, across different experimental conditions: (A) force profiling of shoulder actuators, with varying actuator anchoring points and ...

Diverging Approaches to Skeptical Inference in Non-monotonic Reasoning

Principia: An International Journal of Epistemology
Our paper addresses the problem of a two-fold approach to skeptical inferences in the context non-monotonic logics. We tackle the problem through the analysis of ambiguous theories, such as the Nixon Diamond, as instantiated in non-monotonic inheritance ...

Implementing Default and Autoepistemic Logics via the Logic of GK [PDF]

, 2014
The logic of knowledge and justified assumptions, also known as logic of grounded knowledge (GK), was proposed by Lin and Shoham as a general logic for nonmonotonic reasoning.

MusicSwarm: Biologically Inspired Intelligence for Music Composition

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Biologically inspired swarms of frozen foundation models self‐organize to compose complex music without fine‐tuning. By coordinating through stigmergic signals, decentralized agents dynamically evolve specialized roles and adapt to solve complex tasks.

Does Managerial Ability Improve Environmental Performance and Overall ESG Ratings? The Impact of the European Sustainability Reporting Mandate

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the role of managerial ability in driving environmental performance and overall environmental, social, and governance (ESG) ratings in the context of the European Union sustainability reporting regulations. Using a sample of 7242 firm‐year observations over the period 2015–2023, our results indicate a structural change in ...

Nonmonotonic Skeptical Consequence Relation in Constrained Default Logic

Studia Universitatis Babes-Bolyai: Series Informatica, 2010
This paper presents a study of the nonmonotonic consequence relation which models the skeptical reasoning formalised by constrained default logic. The nonmonotonic skeptical consequence relation is defined using the sequent calculus axiomatic system.

Do Governance Structures Drive Green Building Adoption? A Machine Learning Approach With Random Forests

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the determinants of firms' propensity to adopt green buildings in the Euro Stoxx 300 and the S&P 500 indices, during 2012–2023. Using random forest binary classifiers, we assess the relative importance of financial, sectoral, geographic, and climate governance predictors and uncover nonlinear relationships often overlooked ...

Self‐Similar Blowup for the Cubic Schrödinger Equation

Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We give a rigorous proof for the existence of a finite‐energy, self‐similar solution to the focusing cubic Schrödinger equation in three spatial dimensions. The proof is computer‐assisted and relies on a fixed point argument that shows the existence of a solution in the vicinity of a numerically constructed approximation.

Probabilistic entailment in the setting of coherence: The role of quasi conjunction and inclusion relation

, 2013
In this paper, by adopting a coherence-based probabilistic approach to default reasoning, we focus the study on the logical operation of quasi conjunction and the Goodman-Nguyen inclusion relation for conditional events.
