Unit resolution is arguably the most useful known algorithm for tractable reasoning in propositional logic. Intuitively, if one knows a, b, and a b c, then c should be an obviou...
CNF-BCP is a well-known propositional reasoner that extends clausal Boolean Constraint Propagation (BCP) to non-clausal theories. Although BCP has efficient linear-time implementa...
The key limiting factor in graphical model inference and learning is the complexity of the partition function. We thus ask the question: what are the most general conditions under...
We address the goal of making Delegation Logic (DL) into a practically implementable and tractable trustmanagement system. DL [22] is a logic-based knowledge representation (i.e.,...
Constraints are important for a variety of XML recommendations and applications. Consequently, there are numerous opportunities for advancing the treatment of XML semantics. In pa...
