Belief Dynamics and Explanations in AnsProlog*
Knowledge representation models are very important in the design of intelligent agents because they provide with mechanisms to manage beliefs and their dynamics. In this paper, we propose the use of AnsProlog* as a knowledge representation language, and develop a Non Prioritized Belief Revision operator based on the Answer Set semantics and the use of explanations. This operator is suitable for...
متن کاملExplanations, belief revision and defeasible reasoning
We present different constructions for non-prioritized belief revision, that is, belief changes in which the input sentences are not always accepted. First, we present the concept of explanation in a deductive way. Second, we define multiple revision operators with respect to sets of sentences (representing explanations), giving representation theorems. Finally, we relate the formulated operato...
متن کاملSimplifying Explanations in Bayesian Belief Networks
Abductive inference in Bayesian belief networks is intended as the process of generating the K most probable conngurations given an observed evidence. These conngurations are called explanations and in most of the approaches found in the literature, all the explanations have the same number of literals. In this paper we study how to simplify the explanations in such a way that the resulting con...
متن کاملQualitative Verbal Explanations in Bayesian Belief Networks
Application of Bayesian belief networks in systems that interact directly with human users, such as decision support systems, requires eeective user interfaces. The principal task of such interfaces is bridging the gap between probabilistic models and human intuitive approaches to modeling uncertainty. We describe several methods for automatic generation of qualitative verbal explanations in sy...
