Irrelevance and Conditioning in First-Order Probabilistic Logic
First-order probabilistic logic is a powerful knowledge representation language. Unfortunately, deductive reasoning based on the standard semantics for this logic does not support...

Using First-Order Logic to Reason about Policies
A policy describes the conditions under which an action is permitted or forbidden. We show that a fragment of (multi-sorted) first-order logic can be used to represent and reason...

Understanding SPKI/SDSI Using First-Order Logic
SPKI/SDSI is a language for expressing distributed access control policy, derived from SPKI and SDSI. We provide a first-order logic (FOL) semantics for SDSI, and show that it ha...

A First-Order Bayesian Tool for Probabilistic Ontologies
One of the major weaknesses of current research on the Semantic Web (SW) is the lack of proper means to represent and reason with uncertainty. A number of recent efforts from the ...

First-Order Conditional Logic Revisited
Conditional logics play an important role in recent attempts to investigate default reasoning. This paper investigates firstorder conditional logic. We show that, as for first-ord...
