Augmenting Weight Constraints with Complex Preferences

Abstract. Preference-based reasoning is a form of commonsense reasoning that makes many problems easier to express and sometimes more likely to have a solution. In this paper, we present an approach to introducing preferences in the weight constraint construct, which is a very useful programming construct widely adopted in Answer Set Programming (ASP). We show, mainly by means of examples, the usefulness of the proposed extension, and we outline how to accordingly extend the ASP semantics. 1

...tiated a line of research that was subsequently systematized in [42] which is usually taken to be the seminal work in preference logic. This line of research continues nowadays: the works of [40] and =-=[29]-=-, for instance, develop new modal preference logics that improve over [21] in several directions. For other studies about preference the reader may refer, e.g. among many, to [22, 27, 39, 7, 18] and t...

Meta-axioms and Complex Preferences in Evolving Logical Agents

"... Abstract. In this paper, we introduce some improvements to a framework that we have previously proposed, based upon a multi-layered general agent model, where at each layer temporal-logic-like axioms and meta-axioms can be defined and dynamically checked.

Abstract. In this paper, we introduce some improvements to a framework that we have previously proposed, based upon a multi-layered general agent model, where at each layer temporal-logic-like axioms and meta-axioms can be defined and dynamically checked. Their violation determines suitable repair actions to be undertaken by means of appropriate agent’s self-modifications. This in the perspective of a society of agents, where individuals should be able to learn and enlarge their patterns of behavior by observing and generalizing their observations, and also by “imitating ” other agents, or by “being told ” by them. Here, we extend the overall setting on the one hand by augmenting the temporal-logic-like rules with an ordered conjunction for checking/enforcing an order on events and actions, and on the other hand by introducing the possibility of defining and exploiting complex preferences based upon a (simplified) form of modal reasoning. 1

...ibility of defining and exploiting complex preferences in agent program’s rules. The novel aspects of these preferences (for which we draw inspiration from, adapt and extend some aspects discussed in =-=[29]-=-) w.r.t. existing approaches is their “modal” fashion: preferring one alternative over others is based upon reasoning about what can be hopefully achieved by adopting that alternative. The motivation ...

... that we have proposed in [8, 10]. First we show that our rules fit into the PDL framework to which they bring some useful extension. Then, elaborating on our past work and on principles discussed in =-=[25, 20]-=-, we further improve the forms of preferences that can be expressed. The reader may refer to e.g., [14, 6, 4, 8, 10] and to the references therein for recent overviews and discussion of the many exist...
