Query answering over disjunctive datalog with existential quantifiers [PDF]

open access: yes
The paper discusses the impact of adding existential quantifi- cation in the head of positive disjunctive Datalog rules. After introducing syntax and semantics of the resulting language, we provide a notion of instantiation, which has been proven to ...

Study on English Translation of Chinese Quantifiers from the Perspective of Cognitive Iconicity: A Pilot Study [PDF]

open access: yesSHS Web of Conferences
Chinese quantifiers are heavily loaded with Chinese culture, making it challenging to translate them into idiomatic English. The majority of earlier studies only examined linguistically the English translations of Chinese quantifiers.

Towards an Efficient Evaluation of General Queries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Database applications often require to evaluate queries containing quantifiers or disjunctions, e.g., for handling general integrity constraints. Existing efficient methods for processing quantifiers depart from the relational model as they rely on ...

Quantifying Harm

open access: yesProceedings of the Thirty-Second International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2023
In earlier work we defined a qualitative notion of harm: either harm is caused, or it is not. For practical applications, we often need to quantify harm; for example, we may want to choose the least harmful of a set of possible interventions. We first present a quantitative definition of harm in a deterministic context involving a single individual ...

Quantifiers and working memory

open access: yes, 2009
The paper presents a study examining the role of working memory in quantifier verification. We created situations similar to the span task to compare numerical quantifiers of low and high rank, parity quantifiers and proportional quantifiers. The results

Relationships between Specified and Underspecified Quantification by the Theory of Acyclic Recursion

open access: yesAdvances in Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence Journal, 2016
The paper introduces a technique for representing quantifier relations that can have different scope order depending on context. The technique is demonstrated by classes of terms denoting relations, where each of the arguments of a relation term is bound

On Second-Order Monadic Monoidal and Groupoidal Quantifiers [PDF]

open access: yesLogical Methods in Computer Science, 2010
We study logics defined in terms of second-order monadic monoidal and groupoidal quantifiers. These are generalized quantifiers defined by monoid and groupoid word-problems, equivalently, by regular and context-free languages.
