Explaining modulation of reasoning by belief.
Although deductive reasoning is a closed system, one's beliefs about the world can influence validity judgements. To understand the associated functional neuroanatomy of this belief-bias we studied 14 volunteers using event-related fMRI, as they performed reasoning tasks under neutral, facilitatory and inhibitory belief conditions. We found evidence for the engagement of a left temporal lobe sy...
متن کاملExplaining Effective Learning by Analogical Reasoning
Machine learning algorithms are usually considered as explicit learning strategies requiring large data samples. Contrary to these accounts, cognitive learning seems to be based on significantly less amounts of training data and occurs often in the form of implicit learning. In order to close this gap we propose to explain these discrepancies by a form of analogical learning, bridging these two...
متن کاملExplaining Description Logic Reasoning
The increasing reliance on automated reasoning needs not just the availability of fast reasoners, but also mechanisms to explain their, often surprising, results to human users, so that they can understand the consequences in their application domain. As one of the significant applications of machine reasoning is the Semantic Web, where reasoning on Description Logic(DL) plays a critical role, ...
متن کاملIs belief reasoning automatic?
Understanding the operating characteristics of theory of mind is essential for understanding how beliefs, desires, and other mental states are inferred, and for understanding the role such inferences could play in other cognitive processes. We present the first investigation of the automaticity of belief reasoning. In an incidental false-belief task, adult subjects responded more slowly to unex...
متن کاملDefault Reasoning and Belief
As an important variant of Reiter's default logic, Poole (1988) developed a nonmonotonic reasoning framework in the classical rst-order language. Brewka and Nebel extended Poole's approach in order to enable a representation of priorities between defaults. In this paper we present a general framework for default reasoning, which can be viewed as a common generalization of the three approaches a...
