This paper presents a theoretical and practical framework for constructing and reasoning about mobile agents. The framework is formulated as a process calculus and has two contrib...
Explicit preferences on assumptions as used in prioritized circumscription [McCarthy, 1986; Lifschitz, 1985; Grosof, 1991] and preferred subtheories [Brewka, 1989] provide a clear...
High-level understanding of data must involve the interplay between substantial prior knowledge with geometric and statistical techniques. Our approach emphasizes the recovery of ...
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...
The ability to answer prediction questions is crucial to reasoning about physical systems. A prediction question poses a hypothetical scenario and asks for the resulting behavior ...
