In this paper, we present a categorical model for Multiplicative Additive Polarized Linear Logic MALLP, which is the linear fragment (without structural rules) of Olivier Laurent’s Polarized Linear Logic. Our model is based on an adjunction between reflective/coreflective full subcategories C−/C+ of an ambient ∗-autonomous category C (with products). Similar structures were first introduced by ...

We have implemented and tested a PDA-based system that gives a shopper directions through a shopping mall on the basis of (a) the types of products that the shopper has expressed an interest in, (b) the shopper’s current location, and (c) the purchases that the shopper has made so far. The system uses decision-theoretic planning to compute a policy that optimizes the expected utility of a shopp...
