A negotiation-style framework for non-prioritised revision
نویسنده
چکیده
We present a framework for non-prioritised belief revision i.e., belief revision in which newly acquired information is not always fully accepted in which the result of revision is arrived at via a kind of negotiation between old information and new. We show how both ordinary par t ia l meet revision and Fermd and Hansson's selective revision can be captured in this framework, and also how it supports the definition of contraction operators which do not necessarily satisfy the basic AGM contraction postulate of (Success).

On the Logic of Iterated Non-prioritised Revision
We look at iterated non-prioritised belief revision, using as a starting point a model of non-prioritised revision, similar to Makinson’s screened revision, which assumes an agent keeps a set of core beliefs whose function is to block certain revision inputs. We study postulates for the iteration of this operation. These postulates generalise some of those which have previously been proposed fo...
متن کاملAxiomatic Analysis of Negotiation Protocols
Negotiation protocols are rules under which a negotiation proceeds. This paper introduces a logic approach to negotiation protocol analysis. We consider a negotiation procedure as multiple stages of mutual belief revision. A set of postulates in AGM-style of belief revision are proposed to specify rational behavior of negotiation. An explicit construction of negotiation function is given in whi...
متن کاملNegotiation as Mutual Belief Revision
This paper presents an axiomatic approach to negotiation protocol analysis. We consider a negotiation procedure as multiple stages of mutual belief revision. A set of postulates in AGM-style of belief revision are proposed to specify rational behavior of negotiation. An explicit construction of negotiation function is given in which negotiation process is viewed as the interaction of two iterat...
متن کاملLogical Foundations of Negotiation: Strategies and Preferences
This paper is a contribution towards the body of literature which views negotiation in a qualitative light. It builds on an existing logical framework for negotiation between rational, cooperative, truthful agents proposed in (Meyer, Kwok, & Zhang 2003). We show that agents equipped with negotiation strategies corresponding to basic AGM belief revision operations are capable of reaching exactly...
متن کاملNon-prioritised ranked belief change
Traditional accounts of belief change have often been criticised for placing undue emphasis on the new belief provided as input. A recent proposal to address such issues is Ghose and Goebel’s [6] framework for non-prioritised belief change based on default theories. A novel feature of their approach is the introduction of disbeliefs alongside beliefs which allows for a view of belief contractio...
