A Fully Connectionist Model Generator for Covered First-Order Logic Programs
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,...

Reasoning About the Safety of Information: From Logical Formalization to Operational Definition
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...
