Towards a Practical Argumentative Reasoning with Qualitative Spatial Databases

چکیده
Classical database management can be flawed if the Knowledge database is built within a complex Knowledge Domain. We must then deal with inconsistencies and, in general, with anomalies of several types. In this paper we study computational and cognitive problems in dealing qualitative spatial databases.

Knowledge Discovery in Spatial Databases
Knowledge discovery in databases is a complex process concerned with the discovery of relationships and other descriptions from data. Knowledge discovery in spatial databases represents a particular case of discovery, allowing the discovery of relationships that exist between spatial and non-spatial data, and other data characteristics that aren’t explicitly stored in spatial databases. This pa...
متن کاملKnowledge Discovery in Spatial Databases through Qualitative Spatial Reasoning
Human beings use qualitative identifiers extensively to simplify reality and to perform spatial reasoning more efficiently. Organisational databases usually store geographic identifiers, like addresses or postcodes, which spatial component is not incorporated in the knowledge discovery process. This paper addresses the process of Knowledge Discovery in Spatial Databases through a Qualitative Sp...
متن کاملArgumentative Reasoning with ABEL
Most formal approaches to argumentative reasoning under uncertainty focus on the analysis of qualitative aspects. An exception is the framework of probabilistic argumentation systems. Its philosophy is to include both qualitative and quantitative aspects through a simple way of combining logic and probability theory. Probabilities are used to weigh arguments for and against particular hypothese...
متن کاملTowards a Semantics for Argumentative Systems∗
Defeasible argumentation is one of the approaches that attempt to address the challenges arising when we reason defeasibly, with several formalisms in the literature reaching a mature state. Nowadays, several of them started shifting their semantics towards a dialectical characterization. Therefore, we believe that a sufficiently generic model of the process of dialectical reasoning could also ...
متن کاملThe Argumentative Quality of the Qualitative Research Report
The author argues that, to be convincing, the claims of a qualitative research report must be logically and clearly supported. Eight rules for good argumentative dialogue are presented. The author then presents the process of analogical reasoning to support cross-case generalization.
