Abstract. Abductive reasoning has been recognized as a valuable complement to deductive inference for tasks such as diagnosis and integration of incomplete information despite its ...
Abductive diagnosis is an important method to identify explanations for a given set of observations. Unfortunately, most of the algorithmic problems in this area are intractable. ...
Abduction is a fundamental form of nonmonotonic reasoning that aims at finding explanations for observed manifestations. This process underlies many applications, from car configu...
We analyze the complexity of propositional kernel resolution (del Val 1999), a general method for obtaining logical consequences in restricted target languages. Different choices ...
