We show how to implement a calculus with higher-order subtyping and subkinding by replacing uses of implicit subsumption with explicit coercions. To ensure this can be done, a pol...
Many real-world problems are characterized by complex relational structure, which can be succinctly represented in firstorder logic. However, many relational inference algorithms ...
Induction of recursive theories in the normal ILP setting is a complex task because of the non-monotonicity of the consistency property. In this paper we propose computational solu...

Satisfiability algorithms for propositional logic have improved enormously in recently years. This improvement increases the attractiveness of satisfiability methods for first-orde...

We present a method for proving rigid first order theorems by encoding them as propositional satisfiability problems. We encode the existence of a first order connection tableau an...
