Restricted semantics for default reasoning

In nonmonotonic reasoning there are the problems of inconsistency and incoherence in general, and in default reasoning there may be only one trivial extension or no extension in special.

Description
Summary:In nonmonotonic reasoning there are the problems of inconsistency and incoherence in general, and in default reasoning there may be only one trivial extension or no extension in special. We propose the restricted semantics of four-valued logic for default reasoning to resolve the problems of inconsistency and incoherence and in the meantime retain classical extensions in the presence of consistency and coherency. The restricted semantics can maintain both the expressiveness and reasoning ability of default logic. We provide a transformation approach to compute the restricted extensions by reducing them into classical ones.
