We propose a new semantics for modeling belief, mixing conncepts from qualitative probabilistic and classical possible world accounts. Our belief structures are coherent sets of q...
This article provides an experimental analysis of the possibilistic handling of default rules. Three different nonmonotonic consequence relations are considered: minimum specifici...
We present a new approach to dealing with default information based on the theory of belief functions. Our semantic structures, inspired by Adams' -semantics, are epsilon-beli...

Explaining how the meaning of words relate to the meaning of the utterance in which they are used is of utmost importance. The most common approaches view the meaning of an uttera...
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...
