Forgetting Actions in Domain Descriptions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Forgetting irrelevant/problematic actions in a domain description can be useful in solving reasoning problems, such as query answering, planning, conflict resolution, prediction, postdiction, etc.. Motivated by such applications, we study what forgetting is, how forgetting can be done, and for which applications forgetting can be useful and how, in the context of reasoning about actions. We study these questions in the action language C (a formalism based on causal explanations), and relate it to forgetting in classical logic and logic programming.

Concept and Role Forgetting in ALC Ontologies
Forgetting is an important tool for reducing ontologies by eliminating some concepts and roles while preserving sound and complete reasoning. Attempts have previously been made to address the problem of forgetting in relatively simple description logics (DLs) such as DL-Lite and extended EL . The ontologies used in these attempts were mostly restricted to TBoxes rather than general knowledge ba...

Forgetting is an important tool for reducing ontologies by eliminating some redundant concepts and roles while preserving sound and complete reasoning. Attempts have previously been made to address the problem of forgetting in relatively simple description logics (DLs) such as DL-Lite and extended EL. However, the issue of forgetting for ontologies in more expressive description logics, such as...
متن کاملDirected forgetting of actions by younger and older adults.
Memory for actions that are performed is substantially better than memory for descriptions of actions (e.g., Earles, 1996). In fact, people may form memories for actions even if they do not intend to or want to remember them. The directed forgetting paradigm was used to test the ability of younger and older adults to intentionally forget simple actions (also known as subject-performed tasks, or...

Forgetting is a useful tool for tailoring ontologies by reducing the number of concepts and roles, while preserving sound and complete reasoning. Some attempts have been made to address the problem of forgetting in some relatively simple description logics (DLs) such as DL-Lite and extended EL . Ontologies in those works are mostly expressed as TBoxes rather than general knowledge bases (KBs). ...
متن کاملTowards Concise Preservation by Managed Forgetting: Research Issues and Case Study
In human memory, forgetting plays a crucial role for focusing on important things and neglecting irrelevant details. In digital memories, the idea of systematic forgetting has found little attention, so far. At first glance, forgetting seems to contradict the purpose of archival and preservation. However, we are currently facing a tremendous growth in volumes of digital content. Thus, it become...
