Disjunctive stable models: Unfounded sets, fixpoint semantics, and computation

N Leone, P Rullo, F Scarcello - Information and computation, 1997 - Elsevier
Disjunctive logic programs have become a powerful tool in knowledge representation and
commonsense reasoning. This paper focuses on stable model semantics, currently the most …

Unfolding partiality and disjunctions in stable model semantics

T Janhunen, I Niemelä, D Seipel, P Simons… - ACM Transactions on …, 2006 - dl.acm.org
This article studies an implementation methodology for partial and disjunctive stable models
where partiality and disjunctions are unfolded from a logic program so that an …

Logic and databases: A 20 year retrospective

J Minker - International Workshop on Logic in Databases, 1996 - Springer
At a workshop held in Toulouse, France in 1977, Gallaire, Minker and Nicolas stated that
logic and databases was a field in its own right (see [131]). This was the first time that this …

On the equivalence between assumption-based argumentation and logic programming

M Caminada, C Schulz - Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, 2017 - jair.org
Assumption-Based Argumentation (ABA) has been shown to subsume various other non-
monotonic reasoning formalisms, among them normal logic programming (LP). We re …

Knowledge representation with logic programs

G Brewka, J Dix - International Workshop on Logic Programming and …, 1997 - Springer
In this overview we show how Knowledge Representation (KR) can be done with the help of
generalized logic programs. We start by introducing the core of PROLOG, which is based on …

Modeling the suppression task under weak completion and well-founded semantics

EA Dietz, S Hölldobler, C Wernhard - Journal of Applied Non …, 2014 - Taylor & Francis
Formal approaches that aim at representing human reasoning should be evaluated based
on how humans actually reason. One way of doing so is to investigate whether …

Binding propagation techniques for the optimization of bound disjunctive queries

S Greco - IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data …, 2003 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper presents a technique for the optimization of bound queries on disjunctive
deductive databases. The optimization is based on the rewriting of the source program into …

A core method for the weak completion semantics with skeptical abduction

EAD Saldanha, S Hölldobler, CDPK Ramli… - Journal of Artificial …, 2018 - jair.org
The Weak Completion Semantics is a novel cognitive theory which has been successfully
applied to the suppression task, the selection task, syllogistic reasoning, the belief bias …

Model generation and state generation for disjunctive logic programs

D Seipel, J Minker, C Ruiz - The Journal of Logic Programming, 1997 - Elsevier
This paper investigates two fixpoint approaches for minimal model reasoning with
disjunctive logic programs P. The first one, called model generation, is based on an operator …

Fixpoint characterizations for many-valued disjunctive logic programs with probabilistic semantics

T Lukasiewics - Logic Programming and Nonmotonic Reasoning: 6th …, 2001 - Springer
In this paper, we continue to explore many-valued disjunctive logic programs with
probabilistic semantics. In particular, we newly introduce the least model state semantics for …
