Propositional belief merging and belief negotiation model
We propose in this paper a new family of belief merging operators, that is based on a game between sources : Until a coherent set of sources is reached, at each round a contest is organized to find out the weakest sources, then those sources has to concede (weaken their point of view). This idea leads to numerous new interesting operators (depending of the exact meaning of “weakest” and “conced...
متن کاملBelief Change as Propositional Update
This study examines the problem of belief revision, defined as deciding which of several initially accepted sentences to disbelieve, when new information presents a logical inconsistency with the initial set. In the first three experiments , the initial sentence set included a conditional sentence, a non-conditional (ground) sentence, and an inferred conclusion drawn from the first two. The new...
متن کاملBelief Manipulation Through Propositional Announcements
Public announcements cause each agent in a group to modify their beliefs to incorporate some new piece of information, while simultaneously being aware that all other agents are doing the same. Given a set of agents and a set of epistemic goals, it is natural to ask if there is a single announcement that will make each agent believe the corresponding goal. This problem is known to be undecidabl...
متن کاملPropositional Belief Base Update and Minimal Change
In this paper we examine ten concrete propositional update operations of the literature. We start by completely characterizing their relative strength and their computational complexity. Then we evaluate the competing update operations w.r.t. the postulates proposed by Katsuno and Mendelzon. It turns out that the majority violates most of the postulates. We argue that all violated postulates ar...
متن کاملPropositions, Propositional Attitudes and Belief Revision
In this paper I will propose a new approach to certain semantic puzzles due to Frege, Kripke and others, and the question of propositional attitudes, via the notion of belief revision. The principal logical tool used for setting up the solution is the notion an individual theory. I shall suppose that each individual has his or her own theory consisting of the sentences the individual accepts. I...
