Inconsistency as a Touchstone for Coherence Measures
The debate on probabilistic measures of coherence has focused on evaluating sets of consistent propositions. In this paper we draw attention to the largely neglected question of whether such measures concur with intuitions on test cases with inconsistent propositions and whether they satisfy general adequacy constraints on coherence and inconsistency. While it turns out that, for the vast major...
متن کاملInconsistency measures for probabilistic logics
Inconsistencies in knowledge bases are of major concern in knowledge representation and reasoning. In formalisms that employ model-based reasoning mechanisms inconsistencies render a knowledge base useless due to the non-existence of a model. In order to restore consistency an analysis and understanding of inconsistencies is mandatory. Recently, the field of inconsistency measurement has gained...
متن کاملLexical Ambiguity as a Touchstone for Theories of Language Analysis
This paper assesses several broad approaches to language analysis with respect to the problem of lexical ambiguity. The impact of the problem on both syntactic and semantic analysis is discussed, and several common methods for disambiguation, including the use of selectional restrictions and scriptal lexicons, are analyzed. Their shortcomings illustrate the need for complex inference to resolve...

متن کاملMUS-Based Partitioning for Inconsistency Measures
Measuring inconsistency degrees of knowledge bases of different agents facilitates the understanding of an agent to her environment. Several semantic and syntactic based approaches have been proposed to quantify inconsistencies. By analyzing the limitations of existing approaches, we deeply explore the logical property of the Additivity condition through the connected components based on a grap...
