This paper introduces relaxed abduction, a novel non-standard reasoning task for description logics. Although abductive reasoning over description logic knowledge bases has been ap...
This paper presents a computational model for reasoning with causal explanations of observations within the framework of Abductive Event Calculus (AEC). The model is based on abdu...
People intuitively understand that function and purpose are critical parts of what human-configured entities are about, but these notions have proved difficult to capture formally....
We propose an approach for the integration of abduction and induction in Logic Programming. In particular, we show how it is possible to learn an abductive logic program starting f...
Constraint Logic Programming (CLP) and Abductive Logic Programming (ALP) share the important concept of conditional answer. We exploit their deep similarities to implement an effic...
