An epistemic modal norm of practical reasoning

چکیده

When are you in a position to rely on p practical reasoning? Existing accounts say that must know p, or be justified believing justifiably believe it, and so on. This paper argues all of these proposals face important problems, which I call the Problems Negative Bootstrapping Level Confusions. offer diagnosis argue an adequate epistemic norm transparent following sense: According any norm, consideration counts favor (or against) relying reasoning for action iff, extent that, this also being true. introduce candidate satisfies condition. one should only if it p. show we adopt non-factualist account “must”, amounts novel attractive proposal, proposal transparency

Norm-governed practical reasoning agents

This thesis describes a model of norm-governed practical reasoning agents and demonstrates the implementation of this model in the form of the NoA Normative Agent language and architecture. The introduction of normative concepts such as obligations, permissions and prohibitions into the practical reasoning of an agent is motivated by the need for effective coordination mechanisms in open system...

Combining sceptical epistemic reasoning with credulous practical reasoning

This paper proposes an argument-based semantics for combined epistemic and practical reasoning, taking seriously the idea that in certain contexts epistemic reasoning is sceptical while practical reasoning is credulous. The new semantics combines grounded and preferred semantics. A dialectical proof theory is defined which is sound and complete with respect to this semantics and which combines ...

Informed Deliberation During Norm-Governed Practical Reasoning

A norm-governed agent takes social norms into account in its practical reasoning. Such norms characterise its role within a specific organisational context. By adopting a role, the agent commits to fulfil and adhere to the social norms associated with that role. These commitments require the agent to act in a way that does not violate any of its prohibitions or obligations. In adopting differen...

Norm Consistency in Practical Reasoning Agents

Agents based on reactive planning architectures use pre-specified plans as behaviour specifications. Typically, such agents are motivated by desires to achieve or maintain states of the world. In this paper, however, we discuss a reactive planning agent architecture – NoA – where the behaviour of an agent is motivated and governed by norms. Normative agents are motivated by obligations to act, ...

Reasoning About Epistemic States of Agents by Modal Logic Programming

Modal logic programming is one of appropriate approaches to deal with reasoning about epistemic states of agents. We specify here the least model semantics, the fixpoint semantics, and an SLD-resolution calculus for modal logic programs in the multimodal logic KD4Ig5a, which is intended for reasoning about belief and common belief of agents. We prove that the presented SLD-resolution calculus i...
