Abductive inference has long been associated with the logic of scientific discovery and automated abduction is now being used in real scientific tasks. But few methods can exploi...
We propose axiomatizing some stochastic games, in a continuous state space setting, using continuous belief functions, resp. plausibilities, instead of measures. Then, stochastic g...
The ability to detect ambiguities in context-free grammars is vital for their use in several fields, but the problem is undecidable in the general case. We present a safe, conser...
Relational databases have had great industrial success in computer science. The power of the paradigm is made clear both by its widespread adoption and by theoretical analysis. Tod...
Treewidth measures the ”tree-likeness” of structures. Many NP-complete problems, e.g., propositional satisfiability, are tractable on bounded-treewidth structures. In this wo...
