Paraconsistency is about handling inconsistency in a coherent way. In classical and intuitionistic logic everything follows from an inconsistent theory. A paraconsistent logic avoids the explosion. Quite a few applications in computer science and engineering are discussed in the Intelligent Systems Reference Library Volume 110: Towards Paraconsistent ...

Aristotle’s Theory of Deduction and Paraconsistency
No Órganon Aristóteles descreve alguns esquemas dedutivos nos quais a presença de inconsistências não acarreta a trivialização da teoria lógica envolvida.

A Paraconsistent Higher Order Logic [PDF]
Classical logic predicts that everything (thus nothing useful at all) follows from inconsistency. A paraconsistent logic is a logic where an inconsistency does not lead to such an explosion, and since in practice consistency is difficult to achieve there

Penalty Logic: Paraconsistency and Applications
Penalty logic is a non-classical non-monotonic logic which allows us to demonstrate the power of belief, the level of truth or the reliability of data that we are using. This logic can be useful to model human reasoning or to replace the penalty function

Co-constructive Logics for Proofs and Refutations
This paper considers logics which are formally dual to intuitionistic logic in order to investigate a co-constructive logic for proofs and refutations. This is philosophically motivated by a set of problems regarding the nature of constructive truth, and

Dialectical Multivalued Logic and Probabilistic Theory
There are two probabilistic algebras: one for classical probability and the other for quantum mechanics. Naturally, it is the relation to the object that decides, as in the case of logic, which algebra is to be used.

Quasi-truth and defective knowledge in science: a critical examination
Quasi-truth (a.k.a. pragmatic truth or partial truth) is typically advanced as a framework accounting for incompleteness and uncertainty in the actual practices of science. Also, it is said to be useful for accommodating cases of inconsistency in science

Paraconsistent Logic and Its Place in Latin American Philosophy
This study presents an overview of paraconsistent logic, tracing its historical origins and development within what may be referred to as the Latin American school of paraconsistency.

Rational Inconsistency and Reasoning
Nicholas Rescher has argued we must tolerate inconsistency because of our cognitive limitations. He has also produced, together with R. Brandom, a serious attempt at exploring the logic of inconsistency.

Gerland’s „Dialectica” and Paraconsistency
The present state of paraconsistent logic attests to significant development, and its maturity permits a critical historical analysis of this advance, having in view the appreciation of its historical roots and stages of formation. The aim of our general
