We develop a model of abduction in abstract argumentation, where changes to an argumentation framework act as hypotheses to explain the support of an observation. We present dialogical proof theories for the main decision problems (i.e.,…

Recursive definitions of predicates are usually interpreted either inductively or coinductively. Recently, a more powerful approach has been proposed, called flexible coinduction, to express a variety of intermediate interpretations,…

None of the first-order modal logics between $\mathsf{K}$ and $\mathsf{S5}$ under the constant domain semantics enjoys Craig interpolation or projective Beth definability, even in the language restricted to a single individual variable. It…

To accelerate materials discovery using self-driving labs (SDLs), we present a machine learning pipeline that predicts the electrical conductivity of doped conjugated polymers using rapid, non-destructive optical spectroscopy. Our approach…

In this paper, we establish an analogue of Craig Interpolation Property for a many-sorted variant of first-order hybrid logic. We develop a forcing technique that dynamically adds new constants to the underlying signature in a way that…

We study the properties of the Minimum Description Length principle for sequence prediction, considering a two-part MDL estimator which is chosen from a countable class of models. This applies in particular to the important case of…

As well known, weak K4 and the difference logic DL do not enjoy the Craig interpolation property. Our concern here is the problem of deciding whether any given implication does have an interpolant in these logics. We show that the…

We use the connection between automata and logic to prove that a wide class of coalgebraic fixpoint logics enjoys uniform interpolation. To this aim, first we generalize one of the central results in coalgebraic automata theory, namely…

Dynamic logic is a powerful framework for reasoning about imperative programs. An extension with a concurrent operator [18] was introduced to formalise programs running in parallel. In other direction, other authors proposed a systematic…

Synchronous model is a type of formal models for modelling and specifying reactive systems. It has a great advantage over other real-time models that its modelling paradigm supports a deterministic concurrent behaviour of systems. Various…

Logic-based approaches to AI have the advantage that their behaviour can in principle be explained by providing their users with proofs for the derived consequences. However, if such proofs get very large, then it may be hard to understand…

Uniform interpolation is the property that, for any formula and set of atoms, there exists the strongest consequence omitting those atoms. It plays a central role in knowledge representation and reasoning tasks such as knowledge update and…

Craig interpolation is used in program verification for automating key tasks such as the inference of loop invariants and the computation of program abstractions. This chapter covers some of the most important techniques that have been…

A particularly successful role for Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) is as a tool for discovering useful relational features for subsequent use in a predictive model. Conceptually, the case for using ILP to construct relational features…
