Abstract. For a reasonable sound and complete proof calculus for firstorder logic consider the problem to decide, given a sentence of firstorder logic and a natural number n, whet...
Closed world reasoning is a common nonmonotonic technique that allows for dealing with negative information in knowledge and data bases. We present a detailed analysis of the comp...
We present probabilistic logic programming under inheritance with overriding. This approach is based on new notions of entailment for reasoning with conditional constraints, which...
We analyze several classes of path constraints for semistructured data in a unified framework and prove some decidability and complexity results for these constraints by embedding...
We extend the earlier results on the equivalence between the Boolean and the multivalued dependencies in relational databases and fragments of the Boolean propositional logic. It ...
