Probabilistic Belief Logics for Uncertain Agents
Zining Cao · InTech eBooks · 2012
The study of knowledge and belief has a long tradition in philosophy. An early treatment of a formal logical analysis of reasoning about knowledge and belief came from Hintikka’s work [15]. More recently, researchers in such diverse fields as economics, linguistics, artificial intelligence and theoretical computer science have become increasingly interested in reasoning about knowledge and belief [1–5, 10–13, 18, 20, 24]. In wide areas of application of reasoning about knowledge and belief, it is necessary to reason about uncertain information. Therefore the representation and reasoning of probabilistic information in belief is important.
