Current and Future Challenges in Knowledge Representation and Reasoning (Dagstuhl Perspectives Workshop 22282)

Authors: James P. Delgrande, Birte Glimm, Thomas Meyer, Miroslaw Truszczynski, and Frank Wolter

Published in: Dagstuhl Manifestos, Volume 10, Issue 1 (2024)

Abstract

Knowledge Representation and Reasoning is a central, longstanding, and active area of Artificial Intelligence. Over the years it has evolved significantly; more recently it has been challenged and complemented by research in areas such as machine learning and reasoning under uncertainty. In July 2022,sser a Dagstuhl Perspectives workshop was held on Knowledge Representation and Reasoning. The goal of the workshop was to describe the state of the art in the field, including its relation with other areas, its shortcomings and strengths, together with recommendations for future progress. We developed this manifesto based on the presentations, panels, working groups, and discussions that took place at the Dagstuhl Workshop. It is a declaration of our views on Knowledge Representation: its origins, goals, milestones, and current foci; its relation to other disciplines, especially to Artificial Intelligence; and on its challenges, along with key priorities for the next decade.

The Pyglaf Argumentation Reasoner

Authors: Mario Alviano

Published in: OASIcs, Volume 58, Technical Communications of the 33rd International Conference on Logic Programming (ICLP 2017)

Abstract

The pyglaf reasoner takes advantage of circumscription to solve computational problems of abstract argumentation frameworks. In fact, many of these problems are reduced to circumscription by means of linear encodings, and a few others are solved by means of a sequence of calls to an oracle for circumscription. Within pyglaf, Python is used to build the encodings and to control the execution of the external circumscription solver, which extends the SAT solver glucose and implements an algorithm based on unsatisfiable core analysis.

Dynamic Magic Sets for Disjunctive Datalog Programs

Authors: Mario Alviano

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 7, Technical Communications of the 26th International Conference on Logic Programming (2010)

Abstract

Answer set programming (ASP) is a powerful formalism for knowledge representation and common sense reasoning that allows disjunction in rule heads and nonmonotonic negation in bodies. Magic Sets are a technique for optimizing query answering over logic programs and have been originally defined for standard Datalog, that is, ASP without disjunction and negation. Essentially, the input program is rewritten in order to identify a subset of the program instantiation which is sufficient for answering the query. Dynamic Magic Sets (DMS) are an extension of this technique to ASP. The optimization provided by DMS can be exploited also during the nondeterministic phase of ASP systems. In particular, after some assumptions have been made during the computation, parts of the program may become irrelevant to a query (because of these assumptions). This allows for dynamic pruning of the search space, which may result in exponential performance gains. DMS has been implemented in the dlv system and experimental results confirm the effectiveness of the technique.
