A Goal-Directed Implementation of Query Answering for Hybrid MKNF Knowledge Bases
Ontologies and rules are usually loosely coupled in knowledge representation formalisms. In fact, ontologies use open-world reasoning while the leading semantics for rules use non...

Human and Unhuman Commonsense Reasoning
Ford has introduced a non-monotonic logic, System LS, inspired by an empirical study of human non-monotonic reasoning. We define here a defeasible logic FDL based on Ford’s logi...

Nonmonotonic Ontological and Rule-Based Reasoning with Extended Conceptual Logic Programs
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 ...

A Tableau Algorithm for Paraconsistent and Nonmonotonic Reasoning in Description Logic-Based System
This paper proposes a paraconsistent and nonmonotonic extension of description logic by planting a nonmonotonic mechanism called minimal inconsistency in paradoxical description lo...

Reasoning about actions under uncertainty: A possibilistic approach
In this paper, we present an action language which is called AP oss in order to perform reasoning about actions under uncertainty. This language is based on a possibilistc logic pr...
