We present a novel approach to non-monotonic ILP and its implementation called tal (Top-directed Abductive Learning). tal overcomes some of the completeness problems of ILP systems...
In nonmonotonic reasoning, a default conditional has most often been informally interpreted as a defeasible version of a classical conditional, usually the material conditional...
We present extended conceptual logic programs (ECLPs), for which reasoning is decidable and, moreover, can be reduced to finite answer set programming. ECLPs are useful to reason ...

Humans have always done nonmonotonic reasoning, but rigorous monotonic reasoning in reaching given conclusions has been deservedly more respected and admired. Euclid contains the ...
In this paper we define the notion of a compatibility relation so as to have a common framework for three nonmonotonic reasoning systems: normal logic programming, extended logic ...
