In this paper we consider an extension of the answer set semantics allowing arbitrary use of strong negation. We prove that the strong negation extension of any intermediate logic ...
The extended answer set semantics for simple logic programs, i.e. programs with only classical negation, allows for the defeat of rules to resolve contradictions. In addition, a pa...

Possibilistic Stable model Semantics is an extension of Stable Model Semantics that allows to merge uncertain and non monotonic reasoning into a unique framework. To achieve this a...
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 new exact algorithm for computing answer sets of logic programs is presented and analyzed. The algorithm takes a logic program in Kernel normal form as an input and computes its ...
Answer Set Programming (ASP) and propositional satisfiability (SAT) are closely related. In some recent work we have shown that, on a wide set of logic programs called “tight”...
In previous work, action languages have predominantly been concerned with domains in which values are static unless changed by an action. Real domains, however, often contain value...

This paper outlines a novel approach to the computation of answer sets in an evolving and interactive environment. Instead of recomputing the semantics of the entire program, our a...
This paper discusses the background, algorithms and implementation techniques to support programmers in ‘debugging’ logic programs under the answer set semantics. We first inv...
Preferences are useful when the space of feasible solutions of a given problem is dense but not all these solutions are equivalent w.r.t. some additional requirements. In this case...
