A Language for Implementing Arbitrary Logics
SEQUEL is a new-generation functional programming language, which allows the specification of types in a notation based on the sequent calculus. The sequent calculus notation suff...

A Metalogic Programming Approach to Reasoning about Time in Knowledge Bases
The problem of representing and reasoning about two notions of time that are relevant in the context of knowledge bases is addressed. These are called historical time and belief t...

Incorporating Syntactic Constraints in Recognizing Handwritten Sentences
The output of handwritten word recognizers (HWR) tends to be very noisy due to various factors. In order to compensate for this behaviour, several choices of the HWR must be initi...

Quantifying Beliefs by Belief Functions: An Axiomatic Justification
: We present a set of axioms that justify the use of belief functions to quantify the beliefs held by an agent Y at time t and based on Y's evidential corpus. It is essentiall...

Learning Finite Automata Using Local Distinguishing Experiments
One of the open problems listed in Rivest and Schapire, 1989] is whether and how that the copies of L in their algorithm can be combined into one for better performance. This pape...

A Computational Model of Tractable Reasoning - Taking Inspiration from Cognition
Polynomial time complexity is the usual ‘threshold’ for distinguishing the tractable from the intractable and it may seem reasonable to adopt this notion of tractability in th...

The Range of Applicability of Nonmonotonic Logics for the Inertia Problem
We introduce and use a new methodology for the study of logics for action and change. The methodology allows one to define a taxonomy of reasoning problems, based in particular on...
