Temporal Reasoning in Propositional Interval Neighborhood Logic

نویسنده

  • Guido Sciavicco
چکیده

Interval-based temporal reasoning is an important field of various areas of Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, such as planning and natural language processing. In this paper we show that the satisfiability problem for one of the most important formalisms for interval-based reasoning, namely Allen’s Interval Algebra, can be reduced to the satisfiability problem for Propositional Neighborhood

Propositional Interval Neighborhood Temporal Logics

Logics for time intervals provide a natural framework for dealing with time in various areas of computer science and artificial intelligence, such as planning, natural language processing, temporal databases, and formal specification. In this paper we focus our attention on propositional interval temporal logics with temporal modalities for neighboring intervals over linear orders. We study the...

Using Temporal Logic for Spatial Reasoning: Temporalized Propositional Neighborhood Logic

In this paper we develop a new modal logic for spatial reasoning called Temporalized Propositional Neighborhood Logic, which is the result of the application of a known technique called temporalization to a known temporal logic for spatial reasoning (PNL). We will show that our logic is expressive enough to formalize interesting spatial statements and that it is decidable in NEXPTIME.

A Decidable Logic for Time Intervals: Propositional Neighborhood Logic

Logics for time intervals provide a natural framework for representing and reasoning about timing properties in various areas of artificial intelligence and computer science. Unfortunately, most time interval logics proposed in the literature are (highly) undecidable. Decidable fragments of these logics have been obtained by imposing severe restrictions on their expressive power. In this paper,...

A Tableau-Based Decision Procedure for Right Propositional Neighborhood Logic

Propositional interval temporal logics are quite expressive temporal logics that allow one to naturally express statements that refer to time intervals. Unfortunately, most such logics turned out to be (highly) undecidable. To get decidability, severe syntactic and/or semantic restrictions have been imposed to interval-based temporal logics that make it possible to reduce them to point-based on...

Propositional interval neighborhood logics: Expressiveness, decidability, and undecidable extensions

In this paper, we investigate the expressiveness of the variety of propositional interval neighborhood logics (PNL), we establish their decidability on linearly ordered domains and some important sub-classes, and we prove undecidability of a number of extensions of PNL with additional modalities over interval relations. All together, we show that PNL form a quite expressive and nearly maximal d...
