Current interactive multimedia learning software can not be accessed by learners with disabilities. This is the case for students with vision disabilities. Modeling techniques are necessary to map real world experiences to virtual worlds by using 3D auditory representations of…

About 10 years ago informatics teacher training did not seem to be too productive. Even though many students graduated, most of them chose well paid jobs as IT specialists rather than underpaid teacher positions in Hungary. What is then the…

The design of intelligent agents is a key issue for many applications. Although there is no universally accepted de nition of intelligence, a notion of rational agency has been proposed as an alternative for the characterization of intelligent agency.
Modeling…

Our research project intends to build knowledge about HPC problems to be able to help local researchers. In the general case, researchers who consult us do not own the sources to the parallel programs they run. In order to advise…

In this work two declarative approaches based on the BDI theory are studied, an agent programming language 3APL and an agent architecture that uses defeasible argumentation for knowledge representation and reasoning. Based on that study and considering that in 3APL…

We identify different kinds of relevance relations between formulas that emerge in the process of belief revision. Informal definitions for alternative notions of relevance are suggested and a set of schemas and intuitive postulates for formalizing these notions are proposed.

This article presents the confluence of two general ideas: Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP, an argumentation based formalism for representing knowledge and reasoning) and Abduction in logic. In first place, we introduce a framework that formally states the problem of doing…

This paper presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates knowledge discovery systems (automatic acquisition) and knowledge based systems (experts systems). This work formulates considerations over the viability of the implementation of this architecture according to the advance of the…

When using tableaux algorithms to reason about Description Logics (DLs), new information is inferred from the models considered while trying to achieve knowledge satisfiability. By focusing the ontology change problem, we consider an environment where DLs are the logical formalization…

Current reasoning systems attempt to model an agent's knowledge and interaction with its environment in a symbolic manner. This environment, its world is generally dynamic and changing due to natural evolution or the actions of other agents that are a…
