Cognitive theories for reasoning are about understanding how humans come to conclusions from a set of premises. Starting from hypothetical thoughts, we are interested which are the implications behind basic everyday language and how do we…
Large language models (LLMs) are increasingly evaluated on reasoning tasks, yet their logical abilities remain contested. To address this, we study LLMs' reasoning in a well-defined fragment of logic: syllogistic reasoning. We cast the…
WordNet-like Lexical Databases (WLDs) group English words into sets of synonyms called "synsets." Although the standard WLDs are being used in many successful Text-Mining applications, they have the limitation that word-senses are…
The article discusses some applications of fuzzy logic ideas to formalizing of the Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) process and to measuring the effectiveness of CBR systems
Fuzziness and randomicity widespread exist in natural science, engineering, technology and social science. The purpose of this paper is to present a new logic - uncertain propositional logic which can deal with both fuzziness by taking…
This paper presents Non-Axiomatic Term Logic (NATL) as a theoretical computational framework of humanlike symbolic reasoning in artificial intelligence. NATL unites a discrete syntactic system inspired from Aristotle's term logic and a…
In this paper, an intelligent system for web based e-Learning is proposed which analyzes students knowledge capacity by applying clustering technique. This system uses fuzzy logic and k-means clustering algorithm to arrange the documents…
Effective evaluation of large language models (LLMs) remains a critical bottleneck, as conventional direct scoring often yields inconsistent and opaque judgments. In this work, we adapt the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to LLM-based…
Since Austin introduced the term ``infelicity'', the linguistic literature has been flooded with its use, but no formal or computational explanation has been given for it. This thesis provides one for those infelicities that occur when a…
This paper mainly focuses on (1) a generalized treatment of fuzzy sets of type $n$, where $n$ is an integer larger than or equal to $1$, with an example, mathematical discussions, and real-life interpretation of the given mathematical…
Deductive reasoning is a crucial logical capability that assists us in solving complex problems based on existing knowledge. Although augmented by Chain-of-Thought prompts, Large Language Models (LLMs) might not follow the correct reasoning…
This paper shows a novel fuzzy approximate reasoning method based on the least common multiple (LCM). Its fundamental idea is to obtain a new fuzzy reasoning result by the extended distance measure based on LCM between the antecedent fuzzy…
Equilibrium logic is an approach to nonmonotonic reasoning that extends the stable-model and answer-set semantics for logic programs. In particular, it includes the general case of nested logic programs, where arbitrary Boolean combinations…
Fuzzy implication functions are a key area of study in fuzzy logic, extending the classical logical conditional to handle truth degrees in the interval $[0,1]$. While existing literature often focuses on a limited number of families, in the…
In general, providing an axiomatization for an arbitrary logic is a task that may require some ingenuity. In the case of logics defined by a finite logical matrix (three-valued logics being a particularly simple example), the generation of…
The fuzzy quantification model FA has been identified as one of the best behaved quantification models in several revisions of the field of fuzzy quantification. This model is, to our knowledge, the unique one fulfilling the strict…
We present a sequent calculus for abstract focussing, equipped with proof-terms: in the tradition of Zeilberger's work, logical connectives and their introduction rules are left as a parameter of the system, which collapses the synchronous…
We encode arrays as functions which, in turn, are encoded as sets of ordered pairs. The set cardinality of each of these functions coincides with the length of the array it is representing. Then we define a fragment of set theory that is…
This dissertation explores the roles of polarities and focussing in various aspects of Computational Logic. These concepts play a key role in the the interpretation of proofs as programs, a.k.a. the Curry-Howard correspondence, in the…
Large language models exhibit systematic limitations in structured logical reasoning: they conflate hypothesis generation with verification, cannot distinguish conjecture from validated knowledge, and allow weak reasoning steps to propagate…
