Intentional Reasoning as Non-monotonic Reasoning
نویسندگان
چکیده
Intentional reasoning is also logical reasoning. Since it is a dynamic process that involves reasoning from beliefs, goals and time, it requires both a temporal semantics and a non-monotonic behavior. In this work we propose a model of intentional reasoning as a case of nonmonotonic reasoning. We also show the consistency and soundness of the system.

This study aimed at examining the main and interaction effects of increased intentional reasoning demands, planning time, and also language learning aptitude on syntactic complexity, accuracy, lexical complexity, and fluency (CALF) of 226 EFL learners’ performance on letter writing tasks. The participants were first randomly assigned to three experimental groups to be given a task with differin...
متن کاملNon-Monotonic Reasoning with Logic Programming
Our purpose is to exhibit a modular systematic method of representing non{ monotonic reasoning problems with the Well Founded Semantics WFS of extended logic programs augmented with eXplicit negation (WFSX), augmented by its Contradiction Removal Semantics (CRSX) when needed. We apply this semantics, and its contradiction removal semantics counterpart, to represent non-monotonic reasoning probl...
متن کاملCan Formal Non-monotonic Systems Properly Describe Human Reasoning?
Monotonic (logical) reasoning makes the strong claim that an inference cannot be contradicted by future information; an assumption contrary to everyday life experience. This assumption is relaxed in non-monotonic reasoning. However, there are only few formal non-monotonic theories of reasoning that have inspired psychological theory-building. Can formal systems such as cumulative logic (system ...
متن کاملIs Intractability of Non-Monotonic Reasoning a Real
Several studies about complexity of NMR showed that inferring in non-monotonic knowledge bases is significantly harder than reasoning in monotonic ones. This contrasts with the general idea that NMR can be used to make knowledge representation and reasoning simpler, not harder. In this paper we show that, to some extent, NMR has fulfilled its goal. In particular we prove that circumscription al...
متن کاملA Non-Monotonic Reasoning System for RDF Metadata
Non-monotonic reasoning constitutes an approach to reasoning with incomplete or changing information and is significantly more powerful than standard reasoning, which simply deals with universal statements. Defeasible reasoning, a member of the non-monotonic reasoning family, offers the extra capability of dealing with conflicting information and can represent facts, rules and priorities among ...
