Since knowledge bases (KBs) are usually incomplete, they should be able to provide information regarding their own incompleteness, which requires them to introspect on what they k...
Abstract This paper analyzes the probabilistic description logic PSHIQ by looking at it as a fragment of probabilistic first-order logic with semantics based on possible worlds. We...
We present a fully connectionist system for the learning of first-order logic programs and the generation of corresponding models: Given a program and a set of training examples,...
Experts often disagree about the organization of biological taxa. The shifting definitions of taxonomic names complicate otherwise simple queries concerning these taxa. For examp...
We assume that safety of information stored in a database depends on the reliability of the agents who have performed the insertions in the database. We present a logic S to repres...
