The Logic of Inheritance in Frame Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper shows how the semantics of frames with exceptions can be described logically. We define a simple (purely declarative) frame language allowing for mult iple inheritance and meta classes (i.e. the instances of a class may be classes themselves). Expressions of this language are translated into first order formulas. Circumscript ion of a certain predicate in the result ing theory yields the desired semantics. Our approach allows the in tu i t ion that subclasses should override superclasses to be represented in a very natura l way.

A general approach to linguistic approximation and its application in frame of fuzzy logic deduction
This paper deals with one problem that needs to be addressed in the emerging field known under the name computing with perceptions. It is the problem of describing, approximately, a given fuzzy set in natural language. This problem has lately been referred to as the problem of retranslation. An approaches to dealing with the retranslation problem is discussed in the paper, that ...
متن کاملWell-Founded Optimism: Inheritance in Frame-Based Knowledge Bases
F-logic is a popular formalism for knowledge-intensive applications and, especially, for ontology management in Semantic Web. However, the original F-logic’s semantics for inheritance suffers from a number of anomalies when inheritance and deduction closely interact. This work rectifies this problem and develops a natural model-theoretic semantics for inheritance in frame-based knowledge bases,...

Inheritance in Rule-Based Frame Systems: Semantics and Inference
Knowledge representation languages that combine rules with object-oriented features akin to frame systems have recently attracted a lot of research interest, and F-logic is widely seen as a basis to achieve this integration. In this paper we extend the original F-logic formalism with an array of salient features that are essential for representing and reasoning with commonsense knowledge. In pa...
متن کاملOn X ̃-frames and conjugate systems in Banach spaces
The generalization of p-frame in Banach spaces is considered in this paper. The concepts of an $tilde{X}$-frame and a system conjugate to $tilde{X}$-frame were introduced. Analogues of the results on the existence of conjugate system were obtained. The stability of $tilde{X}$-frame having a conjugate system is studied.
