متن کاملConstructing a logic of plausible inference: a guide to Cox's theorem
Cox s theorem provides a theoretical basis for using probability theory as a general logic of plausible inference. The theorem states that any system for plausible reasoning that satisfies certain qualitative requirements intended to ensure consistency with classical deductive logic and correspondence with commonsense reasoning is isomorphic to probability theory. However, the requirements used...

متن کاملDSm models and Non-Archimedean Reasoning
The Dezert-Smarandache theory of plausible and paradoxical reasoning is based on the premise that some elements θi of a frame Θ have a non-empty intersection. These elements are called exhaustive. In number theory, this property is observed only in non-Archimedean number systems, for example, in the ring Zp of p-adic integers, in the field Q of hyperrational numbers, in the field R of hyperreal...
متن کاملPreferential theory revision
Employing a logic program approach, this paper focuses on applying preferential reasoning to theory revision, both by means of preferences among existing theory rules, and by means of preferences on the possible abductive extensions to the theory. And, in particular, how to prefer among plausible abductive explanations justifying observations.
