Prolegomena to logic programming for non-monotonic reasoning [chapter]

Jürgen Dix, Luís Moniz Pereira, Teodor Przymusinski
1997 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
In the introduction we whet the reader's interest in the eld of logic programming and non{monotonic reasoning with the promises it o ers and with its outstanding problems too.  ...  There follows a brief historical background to logic programming, from its inception to actuality, and its relationship to non{monotonic formalisms, stressing its semantical and procedural aspects.  ...  Lu s Moniz Pereira acknowledges also the support of JNICT/PRAXIS and its funding of the project MENTAL (#2/2.1/TIT/1593/95).  ...

DLP Is Not So Bad After All

Pascal Hitzler, Peter Haase, Markus Krötzsch, York Sure, Rudi Studer
2005 W3C Web Ontology Language (OWL) Experiences and Directions Workshop (OWLED)  
We argue that it is a meaningful fragment and can serve as a basic interoperability layer between OWL and logic programming-based ontology languages.  ...  The authors acknowledge support by the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) under the SmartWeb project, and by the European Commission under contract IST-2003-506826 SEKT and under  ...  Admittedly, the study of the exact relationships between non-monotonic semantics and first-order predicate logic semantics has been neglected in the past, and consequently the relations are not well understood  ...

Possibilistic Logic, Preferential Models, Non-monotonicity and Related Issues

Didier Dubois, Henri Prade
1991 International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence  
We obtain the possibilistic counterpart of Adams' e-semantics of conditional probabilities which is the basis of the probabilistic model of non-monotonic logic proposed by Geffner and Pearl.  ...  Considering the formerly established close links between Gardenfors'epistemic entrenchment and necessity measures, what this paper proposes is a new way of relating belief revision and non-monotonic inference  ...  This work has been partially supported by the European ESPRIT Basic Research Action n° 3085 entitled "Defeasible Reasoning and Uncertainty Management Systems (DRUMS)''.  ...

Non-monotonic Negation in Hybrid Probabilistic Logic Programs

Emad Saad, Enrico Pontelli
2006 International Symposium on Artificial Intelligence and Mathematics  
In this paper, the language of Hybrid Probabilistic Logic Programs framework of [23] is extended to allow non-monotonic negation, and two alternative semantics are defined: stable probabilistic model semantics  ...  Furthermore, it makes it clearer how to characterize non-monotonic negation in probabilistic logic programming frameworks for commonsense reasoning.  ...  Moreover, we showed that the relationship between the probabilistic well-founded semantics and the stable probabilistic model semantics preserves the relationship between the well-founded semantics and  ...

A Scalable Adaptive Method for Complex Reasoning Over Semantic Data Streams [chapter]

Thu-Le Pham
2015 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
The main aim of my research proposal is to provide a solution to perform complex reasoning on dynamic semantic information in a scalable way.  ...  At its core, this requires a solution which combines advantages of both stream processing and reasoning research areas, and has flexible heuristics for adaptation of the stream reasoning processes in order  ...  Moreover, MCS are capable of integrating "typical" monotonic knowledge representation logics like description logics or temporal logics, and non-monotonic logics like default logic and ASP.  ...

Non Deterministic Logic Programs [article]

Emad Saad
2013 arXiv   pre-print
The language of non deterministic logic programs framework is extended with non-monotonic negation, and two alternative semantics are defined: the stable non deterministic model semantics and the well-founded  ...  We present a logic programming framework called non deterministic logic programs, along with a declarative semantics and fixpoint semantics, to allow representing and reasoning about inherently non deterministic  ...  We show that the relationship between the well-founded non deterministic model semantics and the stable non deterministic model semantics for normal non deterministic logic programs preserves the relationship  ...

A flexible framework for defeasible logics [article]

G. Antoniou, D. Billigton, G. Governatori, M.J. Maher
2000 arXiv   pre-print
It supports all defeasible logics that satisfy a strong negation principle. We use logic meta-programs as the basis for the framework.  ...  A solution to this problem is to choose from several logics and, when necessary, combine the representations. In general, such an approach results in a very difficult problem of combination.  ...  In the process, we clarify the relationship between defeasible logics and other non-monotonic logics. Defeasible Logics The family of defeasible logics was introduced by Nute.  ...

Reasoning about aspects with common sense

Klaus Ostermann
2008 Proceedings of the 7th international conference on Aspect-oriented software development - AOSD '08  
We argue that a more modular semantics that is easier to reason about can be given to AO programs if we renounce the monotonicity of the corresponding reasoning system -a sacrifice that is well-known in  ...  There has been a lot of debate about the modularity of aspectoriented programs, and in particular the ability to reason about such programs in a modular way, although it has never been defined precisely  ...  Acknowledgements We thank Todd Milstein, James Noble, the program chair, and the anonymous reviewers for helpful comments.  ...

Development of a Logic Layer in the Semantic Web: Research Issues

Naeem Khalid Janjua, Farookh Khadeer Hussain
2010 2010 Sixth International Conference on Semantics, Knowledge and Grids  
The ontology layer of the semantic web is now mature enough (i.e. standards like RDF, RDFs, OWL, OWL 2) and the next step is to work on a logic layer for the development of advanced reasoning capabilities  ...  This paper discusses argumentation, semantic web and defeasible logic programming with their distinct features and identifies the different research issues that need to be addressed in order to realize  ...  On other hand, Logic Programming does provide these features to support non-monotonic behavior of the system [20] .  ...

On Coherence and Consistence in Fuzzy Answer Set Semantics for Residuated Logic Programs [chapter]

Nicolás Madrid, Manuel Ojeda-Aciego
2009 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
In this work we recall the first steps towards the definition of an answer set semantics for residuated logic programs with negation, and concentrate on the development of relationships between the notions  ...  of coherence and consistence of an interpretation.  ...  Originally, answer sets semantics was intended to deal with non-monotonic reasoning, in that it provides a method to handle negation in logic programming.  ...

SweetProlog: A System to Integrate Ontologies and Rules [chapter]

Loredana Laera, Valentina Tamma, Trevor Bench-Capon, Giovanni Semeraro
2004 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
Finally, the resulting logic program is interrogated by a Prolog engine to deduce new knowledge.  ...  This paper describes the design and implementation of Sweet-Prolog, a system for translating Web rules into Prolog. It enables the integration of ontologies and rules on the Semantic Web.  ...  OWL is incapable of representing non-monotonicity as is First Order Logic. By using OWLRuleML we can represent non-monotonicity via Courteous Logic Programs, a subset of RuleML.  ...
