Artificial intelligence and sign theory

Artificial Intelligence and Sign Theory

Research in artificial intelligence is often regarded as pertaining to the fields of engineering or informatics. Intelligent robots, expert systems, automatic translators, so it is said, belong to the world of computer technology.But is this really the case? Even a cursory study will easily show that things are not that simple as a well orchestrated marketing would have us think. A deeper analy...

Artificial intelligence - theory and practice

AGM Theory and Artificial Intelligence

A very influential work on belief change is based on the seminal paper ‘On the Logic of Theory Change: Partial Meet Contractions and Revision Functions’. In this paper Alchourron, Gärdenfors, and Makinson investigate the properties that such a method should have in order to be intuitively appealing. The result was a set of postulates (named AGM postulates after the initials of the authors) that...

Advances in Artificial Intelligence Theory

In recent years, the usual knowledge representation (KR) problem in artificial intelligence is how to automatically represent and transform different kinds of knowledge using one kind of schema. Especially this problem focuses on representing formal knowledge in natural language for human understanding. For this purpose, this paper proposes an extended super-function (ESF) schema to build a nov...

Artificial Intelligence and Asymmetric Information Theory

When human agents come together to make decisions it is often the case that one human agent has more information than the other and this phenomenon is called information asymmetry and this distorts the market. Often if one human agent intends to manipulate a decision in its favor the human agent can signal wrong or right information. Alternatively, one human agent can screen for information to ...
