Commonsense Reasoning
نویسنده
چکیده
For an artificial system to act sensibly in the real world, it must know about that world, and it must be able to use its knowledge effectively. The common knowledge about the world that is possessed by every schoolchild and the methods for making obvious inferences from this knowledge are called common sense in both humans and computers. Almost every type of intelligent task — natural language processing, planning, learning, high-level vision, expert-level reasoning — requires some degree of commonsense reasoning to carry out. The encoding of commonsense knowledge has been recognized as one of the central issue of AI since the inception of the field (McCarthy, 1959).

Ethnomethodology and Conversational Analysis
In a speech community, people utilize their communicative competence which they have acquired from their society as part of their distinctive sociolinguistic identity. They negotiate and share meanings, because they have commonsense knowledge about the world, and have universal practical reasoning. Their commonsense knowledge is embodied in their language. Thus, not only does social life depend...
متن کاملReasoning with Heterogeneous Knowledge for Commonsense Machine Comprehension
Reasoning with commonsense knowledge is critical for natural language understanding. Traditional methods for commonsense machine comprehension mostly only focus on one specific kind of knowledge, neglecting the fact that commonsense reasoning requires simultaneously considering different kinds of commonsense knowledge. In this paper, we propose a multi-knowledge reasoning method, which can expl...
متن کاملAn Interface for Crowd-Sourcing Spatial Models of Commonsense
Commonsense is a challenge not only for representation and reasoning but also for large scale knowledge engineering required to capture the breadth of our ‘everyday’ world. One approach to knowledge engineering is to ‘outsource’ the effort to the public through games that generate structured commonsense knowledge from user play. To date, such games have focused on symbolic and textual knowledge...
متن کاملLogical Formalizations of Commonsense Reasoning: A Survey
Commonsense reasoning is in principle a central problem in artificial intelligence, but it is a very difficult one. One approach that has been pursued since the earliest days of the field has been to encode commonsense knowledge as statements in a logic-based representation language and to implement commonsense reasoning as some form of logical inference. This paper surveys the use of logic-bas...
متن کاملConnectionist Models of Rule-Based Reasoning
We investigate connectionist models of rule-based reasoning, and show that while such models usually carry out reasoning in exactly the same way as symbolic systems, they have more to ooer in terms of commonsense reasoning. A connection-ist architecture for commonsense reasoning, CON-SYDERR, is proposed to account for common-sense reasoning patterns and to remedy the brit-tleness problem in tra...

This special issue consists largely of expanded and revised versions of selected papers of the Fifth International Symposium on Logical Formalizations of Commonsense Reasoning (Common Sense 2001), held at New York University in May 2001.1,2 The Common Sense Symposia, first organized in 1991 by John McCarthy and held roughly biannually since, are dedicated to exploring the development of formal ...
