When reasoning in description, modal or temporal logics it is often useful to consider axioms representing universal truths in the domain of discourse. Reasoning with respect to a...
This paper makes three observations with regard to the application of algorithms such as wsat and relsat to problems of practical interest. First, we identify a specific calculati...
We present a new tableaux calculus deciding the ABox consistency problem for the expressive description logic ALCNHR+ . Prominent language features of ALCNHR+ are number restricti...
Bondarenko et al. have recently proposed an extension of the argumentation-theoretic semantics of admissible and preferred arguments, originally proposed for logic programming onl...
We investigate the problem of reasoning with partitions of related logical axioms. Our motivation is two-fold. First, we are concerned with how to reason effectively with multiple...
We explore the possibility of a logic where a conclusion substantially improves over its premise(s): Specifically, we intend to rule out inference steps such that the premise conv...
