A logic of conditional preferences is defined, with a language which allows the compact representation of certain kinds of conditional preference statements, a semantics and a pro...
Due to the various and dynamic nature of stimuli, decisions of intelligent agents must rely on the coordination of complex cognitive systems. This paper precisely focusses on a gen...
Many planning and design problems can be characterized as optimal search over a constrained network of conditional choices with preferences. To draw upon the advanced methods of c...
We develop an algorithm for merging plans that are represented in a richly expressive language. Speci cally, weare concerned with plans that have i quantitative temporal constrain...

One may need to build a statistical parser for a new language, using only a very small labeled treebank together with raw text. We argue that bootstrapping a parser is most promis...
