On the one hand, they may express rules in a very general sense, representing, for example, plausible relationships, physical laws, and social norms. On the other hand, as default rules or general implications, they constitute a basic tool for reasoning, even in the presence of uncertainty. In this sense, conditionals are intimately connected both to information and inference. Due to their non-Boolean nature, however, conditionals are not easily dealt with. They are not simply true or false — rather, a conditional “if A then B” provides a context, A, for B to be plausible (or true) and must not be confused with “A entails B” or with the material implication “not A or B.” This ill- trates how conditionals represent information, understood in its strict sense as reduction of uncertainty. To learn that, in the context A, the proposition B is plausible, may reduce uncertainty about B and hence is information. The ab- ity to predict such conditioned propositions is knowledge and as such (earlier) acquired information. The ?rst work on conditional objects dates back to Boole in the 19th c- tury, and the interest in conditionals was revived in the second half of the 20th century, when the emerging Arti?cial Intelligence made claims for appropriate formaltoolstohandle“generalizedrules.”Sincethen,conditionalshavebeenthe topic of countless publications, each emphasizing their relevance for knowledge representation, plausible reasoning, nonmonotonic inference, and belief revision.Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence ;3301Computational complexityCongressesUncertainty (Information theory)CongressesComputational complexityUncertainty (Information theory)511.352Rödder WilhelmKern-Isberner Gabriele1956-Kulmann FriedhelmMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK996465686003316Conditionals, Information, and Inference772476UNISA01374nam a22002891i 450099100294328970753620040512075603.0040624s1969 it |||||||||||||||||eng b13000986-39ule_instARCHE-095866ExLDip.to Beni CulturaliitaA.t.i.
