Dynamic logic of preference upgrade
نویسندگان
چکیده
The notion of preference occurs across many areas, including the philosophy of action, decision theory, optimality theory, and game theory. In these settings, individual preferences between worlds or actions can be used to predict behavior by rational agents. In a more abstract sense, the notion of preference also occurs in conditional logic, non-monotonic logic and belief revision theory, whose semantics involve an ordering of the possible worlds in terms of relative similarity or plausibility, or other preference-like relations.

Modal Logic for Belief and Preference Change a Dissertation Submitted to the Department of Philosophy and the Committee on Graduate Studies of Stanford University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy
In my thesis, I show that Order Logic interpreted over preorders provides a unifying framework for individuals and groups to analyze believe and preference change. Order Logic is a modal logic with three modalities complete for the class of transitive and reflexive frames whose fragments and extensions yield various formalisms to analyze the dynamics of beliefs and preferences. The analysis pro...
متن کاملDynamic Epistemic Logic for Implicit and Explicit Beliefs
The dynamic turn in Epistemic Logic is based on the idea that notions of information should be studied together with the actions that modify them. Dynamic epistemic logics have explored how knowledge and beliefs change as consequence of, among others, acts of observation and upgrade. Nevertheless, the omniscient nature of the represented agents has kept finer actions outside the picture, the mo...
متن کاملA Note on Reliability-Based Preference Dynamics
This paper continues a line of work that studies individual preference upgrades in order to model situations akin to a process of public deliberation in collective decision making. It proposes a general upgrade policy, presenting its semantic definition and a corresponding modality for describing its effects as well as a complete axiom system.
متن کاملPersistence Effects in a Dynamic Discrete Choice Model. Application to Low-End Computer Servers.1
The paper introduces preference persistence into a dynamic discrete choice model of demand for durables. This persistence may arise, for example, when the products can be categorized into a few number of formats, which involve special knowledge, maintenance and upgrade. The standard optimal stopping problem of when to buy a new product (Rust (1987), Melnikov (2000)) is completed by the upgrade ...
متن کاملA Logical Analysis of the Relationship between Commitment and Obligation
In this paper, we analyze the relationship between commitment and obligation from a logical viewpoint. The principle of commitment implying obligation is proven in a specific logic of action preference which is a generalization of Meyer’s dynamic deontic logic. In the proposed formalism, an agent’s commitment to goals is considered as a special kind of actions which can change her deontic prefe...
