We present an approach to knowledge compilation that transforms a function-free first-order Horn knowledge base to propositional logic. This form of compilation is important since...

ABSTRACT. This paper investigates the problem of finding subclasses of nonmonotonic reasoning which can be implemented efficiently. The ability to "define" propositions u...
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...
We investigate the problem of reasoning with partitions of related logical axioms. Our motivation is two-fold. First, we are concerned with how to reason effectively with multiple...
We introduce a new framework for the study of reasoning. The Learning (in order) to Reason approach developed here views learning as an integral part of the inference process, and ...
