Approximate Deduction in Single Evidential Bodies
Results on approximate deduction in the context of the calculus of evidence of Dempster-Shafer and the theory of interval probabilities are reported. Approximate conditional knowledge about the truth of conditional propositions was assumed available and expressed as sets of possible values (actually numeric intervals) of conditional probabil ities. Under different interpretations of this condi...
متن کاملInterventions in Premise Semantics
Counterfactual thought and talk play a central role throughout science and in many areas of philosophy. Hence it’s not surprising that they have been extensively studied in a number fields: besides philosophy itself, linguistics, psychology, and computer science. In particular, much work has gone into developing a logic and a semantics for counterfactual conditionals, i.e. conditionals of the f...
متن کاملCausal Premise Semantics
The rise of causality and the attendant graph-theoretic modeling tools in the study of counterfactual reasoning has had resounding effects in many areas of cognitive science, but it has thus far not permeated the mainstream in linguistic theory to a comparable degree. In this paper I show that a version of the predominant framework for the formal semantic analysis of conditionals, Kratzer-style...

The story is designed so that the physical artefacts play meaningful parts in the narrative, thus blurring the line between story and interface. In informal tests and demonstrations users found the interaction easy to understand, thus indicating thi...
