Abstract. A great deal of research has been devoted to nontrivial reasoning in inconsistent knowledge bases. Coherence-based approaches proceed by a consolidation operation which s...
We introduce in this paper an agent model based on coherence theory. We give a formalization of Thagard’s theory on coherence and use it to explain the reasoning process of an in...

Abstract. One of the maincharacteristics of logical reasoning in knowledge based systems is its high computational complexity. Anytime deduction and anytime compilation are two att...
In contrast with classical reasoning, where a solution is either correct or incorrect, approximate reasoning tries to compute solutions which are close to the ideal solution, with...
