Download or read book Inconsistency Tolerance written by Leopoldo Bertossi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-01-17 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inconsistency arises in many areas in advanced computing. Often inconsistency is unwanted, for example in the specification for a plan or in sensor fusion in robotics; however, sometimes inconsistency is useful. Whether inconsistency is unwanted or useful, there is a need to develop tolerance to inconsistency in application technologies such as databases, knowledge bases, and software systems. To address this situation, inconsistency tolerance is being built on foundational technologies for identifying and analyzing inconsistency in information, for representing and reasoning with inconsistent information, for resolving inconsistent information, and for merging inconsistent information. The idea for this book arose out of a Dagstuhl Seminar on the topic held in summer 2003. The nine chapters in this first book devoted to the subject of inconsistency tolerance were carefully invited and anonymously reviewed. The book provides an exciting introduction to this new field.

Download or read book Inconsistent Mathematics written by C.E. Mortensen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-11-30 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: without a properly developed inconsistent calculus based on infinitesimals, then in consistent claims from the history of the calculus might well simply be symptoms of confusion. This is addressed in Chapter 5. It is further argued that mathematics has a certain primacy over logic, in that paraconsistent or relevant logics have to be based on inconsistent mathematics. If the latter turns out to be reasonably rich then paraconsistentism is vindicated; while if inconsistent mathematics has seri ous restriytions then the case for being interested in inconsistency-tolerant logics is weakened. (On such restrictions, see this chapter, section 3. ) It must be conceded that fault-tolerant computer programming (e. g. Chapter 8) finds a substantial and important use for paraconsistent logics, albeit with an epistemological motivation (see this chapter, section 3). But even here it should be noted that if inconsistent mathematics turned out to be functionally impoverished then so would inconsistent databases. 2. Summary In Chapter 2, Meyer's results on relevant arithmetic are set out, and his view that they have a bearing on G8del's incompleteness theorems is discussed. Model theory for nonclassical logics is also set out so as to be able to show that the inconsistency of inconsistent theories can be controlled or limited, but in this book model theory is kept in the background as much as possible. This is then used to study the functional properties of various equational number theories.
Download or read book Logics in Artificial Intelligence written by Tomi Janhunen and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at the 12th European Conference on Logics in Arti?cial Intelligence, JELIA 2010, which was held in Helsinki, Finland, during September 13–15, 2010. Logics provide a formal basis and key descriptive notation for the study and development of applications and systems in arti?cial intelligence (AI). With the depth and maturity of formalisms, methodologies, and systems today, such l- ics are increasingly important. The European Conference on Logics in Arti?cial Intelligence (or Journ´ ees Europ´ eennes sur la Logique en Intelligence Arti?cielle — JELIA) began back in 1988, as a workshop, in response to the need for a European forum for the discussion of emerging work in this ?eld. Since then, JELIA has been organized biennially, with English as the o?cial language, and with proceedings published in Springer's Lecture Notes in Arti?cial Intelligence series.In2010theconferencewasorganizedfor the?rsttime inScandinavia,f- lowing previous meetings mainly taking place in Central and Southern Europe. The increasing interest in this forum, its international level with growing p- ticipation by researchersworldwide, and the overalltechnical quality has turned JELIA into a major biennial forum for the discussion of logic-based AI.

Download or read book Rough Sets Fuzzy Sets Data Mining and Granular Computing written by Dominik Slezak and published by Springer. This book was released on 2005-09-19 with total page 764 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at the 10th Int- national Conference on Rough Sets, Fuzzy Sets, Data Mining, and Granular Computing, RSFDGrC 2005, organized at the University of Regina, August 31st–September 3rd, 2005. This conference followed in the footsteps of inter- tional events devoted to the subject of rough sets, held so far in Canada, China, Japan,Poland,Sweden, and the USA. RSFDGrC achievedthe status of biennial international conference, starting from 2003 in Chongqing, China. The theory of rough sets, proposed by Zdzis law Pawlak in 1982, is a model of approximate reasoning. The main idea is based on indiscernibility relations that describe indistinguishability of objects. Concepts are represented by - proximations. In applications, rough set methodology focuses on approximate representation of knowledge derivable from data. It leads to signi?cant results in many areas such as ?nance, industry, multimedia, and medicine. The RSFDGrC conferences put an emphasis on connections between rough sets and fuzzy sets, granularcomputing, and knowledge discoveryand data m- ing, both at the level of theoretical foundations and real-life applications. In the case of this event, additional e?ort was made to establish a linkage towards a broader range of applications. We achieved it by including in the conference program the workshops on bioinformatics, security engineering, and embedded systems, as well as tutorials and sessions related to other application areas.
