Hypothesis Pruning and Ranking for Large Plan Recognition Problems
This paper addresses the problem of plan recognition for multi-agent teams. Complex multi-agent tasks typically require dynamic teams where the team membership changes over time. ...

A Reductive Semantics for Counting and Choice in Answer Set Programming
In a recent paper, Ferraris, Lee and Lifschitz conjectured that the concept of a stable model of a first-order formula can be used to treat some answer set programming expressions...

Computing Minimal Diagnoses by Greedy Stochastic Search
Most algorithms for computing diagnoses within a modelbased diagnosis framework are deterministic. Such algorithms guarantee soundness and completeness, but are P 2 hard. To overc...

Nonmonotonic Modes of Inference
In this paper we investigate nonmonotonic `modes of inference'. Our approach uses modal (conditional) logic to establish a uniform framework in which to study nonmonotonic co...
