Ch. Meyer, W. van der Hoek is een Engelstalig gedrukt boek. Deze titel is geschikt voor professionals.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEpistemic logic has grown from its philosophical beginnings to find diverse applications in computer science as a means of reasoning about the knowledge and belief of agents. This book, based on courses taught at universities and summer schools, provides a broad introduction to the subject; many exercises are included together with their solutions. The authors begin by presenting the necessary apparatus from mathematics and logic, including Kripke semantics and the well-known modal logics K, T, S4 and S5. Then they turn to applications in the contexts of distributed systems and artificial intelligence: topics that are addressed include the notions of common knowledge, distributed knowledge, explicit and implicit belief, the interplays between knowledge and time, and knowledge and action, as well as a graded (or numerical) variant of the epistemic operators. The problem of logical omniscience is also discussed extensively. Halpern and Moses' theory of honest formulae is covered, and a digression is made into the realm of non-monotonic reasoning and preferential entailment. Moore's autoepistemic logic is discussed, together with Levesque's related logic of 'all I know'. Furthermore, it is shown how one can base default and counterfactual reasoning on epistemic logic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book, based on courses taught at universities and summer schools, provides a broad introduction to the subject; many exercises are included with their solutions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA broad introduction to the subject; many exercises with full solutions are provided.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInhoudelijk sluit dit boek aan bij onderwerpen als Artificial intelligence (AI), COMPUTERS \/ Artificial Intelligence \/ General, Computing: Professional \u0026amp; Programming.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSerie: Cambridge Tracts in Theoretical Computer Science\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Intertaal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56398454358356,"sku":"9780521602808","price":76.33,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0967\/0538\/0692\/files\/9780521602808.jpg?v=1783608205","url":"https:\/\/intertaalid.nl\/en\/products\/epistemic-logic-for-ai-and-computer-science-9780521602808","provider":"Intertaal","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
