Combining Multiple-valued Logics in Modular Expert Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The way experts manage uncertainty usually changes depending on the task they are performing. This fact has lead us to consider the problem of communicating modules (task implementations) in a large and structured knowledge based system when modules have different uncertainty calculi. In this paper, the analysis of the communication problem is made assuming that (i) each uncertainty calculus is an inference mechanism defining an entailment relation, and therefore the communication is considered to be inference-preserving, and (ii) we restrict ourselves to the case which the different uncertainty calculi are given by a class of truth functional Multiple-valued Logics.

Labelled Deduction over Algebras of Truth-Values
We introduce a framework for presenting non-classical logics in a modular and uniform way as labelled natural deduction systems. The use of algebras of truth-values as the labelling algebras of our systems allows us to give generalized systems for multiple-valued logics. More specifically, our framework generalizes previous work where labels represent worlds in the underlying Kripke structure: ...
متن کاملDefining and combining Multiple-valued Logics for Knowledge-based Systems
Multiple-valued logics are useful for dealing with uncertainty and imprecision in Knowledge-Based Systems. Different problems can require different logics. Then we need mechanisms to translate the information exchanged between two problems with different logics. In this paper, we introduce the logical foundations of such logics and the communication mechanisms that preserve some deductive prope...
متن کاملTruth-values as Labels: A General Recipe for Labelled Deduction
We introduce a general recipe for presenting non-classical logics in a modular and uniform way as labelled deduction systems. Our recipe is based on a labelling mechanism where labels are general entities that are present, in one way or another, in all logics, namely truth-values. More specifically, the main idea underlying our approach is the use of algebras of truth-values, whose operators re...
متن کاملMany-Valued Multiple-Expert modal models
In AI and other branches of Computer Science expert models are often studied and used. Here we examine experts which evaluate formulas of modal logic. An expert model consists of a set of experts and a domination relation which dictates how each expert’s opinion is dependent upon the opinions expressed by other experts. Such multiple-expert modal models were introduced and investigated by Fitti...
