Knowledge base revision using circumscription
[chapter]
1993
Lecture Notes in Computer Science
Secondly, we de ne the revision operation by applying a form of prioritized circumscription to this representation of the knowledge base. ...
In this paper we present a framework of retrospective reasoning to deal with the belief revision problem in knowledge systems. ...
The revision operation is de ned by applying a form of circumscription to the representation of the knowledge base. ...

Reducing belief revision to circumscription (and vice versa)
1997
Artificial Intelligence
In this paper we greatly extend Winslett's work by establishing new relations between circumscription and a large number of belief revision operators. ...
Nonmonotonic formalisms and belief revision operators have been introduced as useful tools to describe and reason about evolving scenarios. ...
Dalal 's revision The same reductions between Satoh's revision and usual (set-containment-based) circumscription hold between Dalal's revision [ lo] and cardinality-based circumscription. ...

The method is illustrated in a simple case: a knowledge base with a rule base modeled by implications of propositional logic, the uncertainty being measured by certainty ...
In this paper we choose circumscription as the underlying inference mechanism and use two different belief constraints to define two semantics, the stable circumscriptive semantics and the well-founded ...

Pearl, Uncovering trees in constraint networks This paper examines the possibility of removing redundant information from a given knowledge base and restructuring it in the form of a tree to enable efficient ...
This revised set is shown to provide the same conclusion sets on a hierarchy as path-based theories for three classical variants of preclusion. ...
Based on this transformation, our second result concerns the direct comparison of the two main GAS used today, and provides the conditions under which these two GAS are fundamentally distinct search algorithms ...

The revising processing is based on some kind of relation between antecedent and con- sequent, which can be a linear relation or a semantic relation. ...
Space Efficiency of Propositional Knowledge Representation Formalisms
2000
The Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research
In particular, we consider formalisms for nonmonotonic reasoning, such as circumscription and default logic, as well as belief revision operators and the stable model semantics for logic programs with ...
We investigate the space efficiency of a Propositional Knowledge Representation (PKR) formalism. ...
Acknowledgments This paper is an extended and revised version of a paper by the same authors appeared in the proceedings of the fifth international conference on the principles of knowledge representation ...

McCarthy variations in a modal key
2011
Artificial Intelligence
First, we re-analyze circumscription in dynamic logics of belief change under hard and soft information. ...
Acknowledgements Several colleagues provided useful comments. ...
And in tandem with this, I would say that circumscriptive inference is about belief formation that takes place on the basis of incoming new information. 4 Clearly, knowledge update and belief revision ...

After introducing the basic notions of belief revision operators and criteria of circumscription, they study some translations between them and give a general methodology to transform any belief revision ...
