Description Logics, and in particular the web ontology language OWL has been proposed as an appropriate basis for computing matches between structured objects for the sake of info...
Unit resolution is arguably the most useful known algorithm for tractable reasoning in propositional logic. Intuitively, if one knows a, b, and a b c, then c should be an obviou...
Combinatorial auctions (CAs) have emerged as an important model in economics and show promise as a useful tool for tackling resource allocation in AI. Unfortunately, winner determ...
We present a method for specifying temporal constraints on trajectories of dynamical systems and enforcing them during qualitative simulation. This capability can be used to focus...
Sometimes inferences made at some specific time are valid at other times, too. In model-based diagnosis and monitoring as well as qualitative simulation inferences are often re-do...
