This paper studies constraint satisfaction over connected row-convex (CRC) constraints. It shows that CRC constraints are closed under composition, intersection, and transposition...

We present a design for an automated theorem prover that controls its search based on ideas from several areas of artificial intelligence (AI). The combination of case-based reaso...
We address the problem of introducing preferences into default logic. Two approaches are given, one a generalisation of the other. In the first approach, an ordered default theory...
A method is presented for analogical reasoning in Automated Deduction. We focus on the abductive aspects of analogy and give a unified treatment for theorems and non-theorems. Abd...
Like middle-men in physical commerce, middleagents support the flow of information in electronic commerce, assisting in locating and connecting the ultimate information provider ...
The class of algorithms for approximating reasoning tasks presented in this paper is based on approximating the general bucket elimination framework. The algorithms have adjustabl...
Weak causal relationships and small sample size pose two significant difficulties to the automatic discovery of causal models from observational data. This paper examines the infl...

We consider the frame problem, that is, char acterizing the assumption that properties tend to persist over time. We show that there are at least three distinct assumptions that...
