Logically automorphically equivalent knowledge bases

چکیده
Knowledge bases theory provide an important example of the field where applications of universal algebra and algebraic logic look very natural, and their interaction with practical problems arising in computer science might be very productive. In this paper we study the equivalence problem for knowledge bases. Our interest is to find out how the informational equivalence is related to the logical description of knowledge. Studying various equivalences of knowledge bases allows us to compare different knowledge bases. The main objective of this paper is logically automorphically equivalent knowledge bases. As we will see this notion gives us a good enough characterization of knowledge bases.

Essential and redundant rules in Horn knowledge bases
A production rule of a knowledge base ia called Ed sential if it is present in any prime knowledge ba8e which is logically equivalent to the given one. The identification of essential rules indicates the degree of fkeedom we have in constructing logically equivalent transfomaationa of the base, by specifying the set of rules which must remain in place, and implicitly showing which rulea could b...
متن کاملA Preorder Classiication Algorithm Based on a Poset Classiication Algorithm
This work shows how any classiication system based on orders may be extended to pre-orders. Such systems build hierarchies of object representations with a strict ordering relation between them and do not provide for the retention of multiple logically equivalent representations. In some domains retention of equivalent representations is required-this arises for example when integrating knowled...
متن کاملEvaluation-Based Reasoning with Disjunctive Information in First-Order Knowledge Bases
In previous work, Levesque proposed an evaluation-based reasoning procedure for socalled proper KBs, equivalent to a possibly incomplete possibly infinite set of function-free ground literals. The procedure, called V; preserved the efficiency and logical soundness of database query evaluation. Moreover, if the query was constrained to be in a special normal form, V was also logically complete. ...
متن کاملCollective Decision-Making without Paradoxes: An Argument-Based Account
The combination of individual judgments on logically interconnected propositions into a collective decision on the same propositions is called judgment aggregation. Literature in social choice and political theory has claimed that judgment aggregation raises serious concerns. For example, consider a set of premises and a conclusion in which the latter is logically equivalent to the former. When...
متن کاملReasoning over Semantic Networks – A Typology of Axioms for Natural Language Inference
There are problems related to question answering which obviously call for semantically based logical inferences. For example, a question-answering system should produce the same answer if asked with logically equivalent paraphrases of a question. Moreover, an answer should not only be found for direct matches of the query with the knowledge base but also if the answer is entailed by the latter....
