An elementary belief function logic

Non-additive uncertainty theories, typically possibility theory, belief functions and imprecise probabilities share a common feature with modal logic: the duality properties between possibility and necessity measures, belief and plausibility functions as well as between upper and lower probabilities extend the duality between possibility and necessity modalities to the graded environment. It has been shown that the all-or-nothing version of possibility theory can be exactly captured by a minimal epistemic logic (MEL) that uses a very small fragment of the KD modal logic, without resorting to relational semantics. Besides, the case of belief functions has been studied independently, and a belief function logic has been obtained by extending the modal logic S5 to graded modalities using {\L}ukasiewicz logic, albeit using relational semantics. This paper shows that a simpler belief function logic can be devised by adding {\L}ukasiewicz logic on top of MEL. It allows for a more natural semantics in terms of Shafer basic probability assignments.


Doxastic Extensions of \L ukasiewicz Logic

We propose two new doxastic extensions of fuzzy \L ukasiewicz logic in which their semantics are Kripke-based with both fuzzy atomic propositions and fuzzy accessibility relations. A class of these extensions is equipped with uninformed belief operator, and the other class is based on a new notion of skeptical belief. We model a fuzzy version of muddy children problem and a CPA-security experiment using uniformed belief and skeptical belief, respectively. Moreover, we prove soundness and completeness for both of these belief extensions.


Fuzzy Maximum Satisfiability

Halaby, Mohamed El, Abdalla, Areeg

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

In this paper, we extend the Maximum Satisfiability (MaxSAT) problem to {\L}ukasiewicz logic. The MaxSAT problem for a set of formulae {\Phi} is the problem of finding an assignment to the variables in {\Phi} that satisfies the maximum number of formulae. Three possible solutions (encodings) are proposed to the new problem: (1) Disjunctive Linear Relations (DLRs), (2) Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) and (3) Weighted Constraint Satisfaction Problem (WCSP). Like its Boolean counterpart, the extended fuzzy MaxSAT will have numerous applications in optimization problems that involve vagueness.
