Abstract

The use of logic for knowledge representation and reasoning systems is controversial. There are, indeed, several ways that standard First Order Predicate Logic is inappropriate for modelling natural language understanding and commonsense reasoning. However, a more appropriate logic can be designed. This chapter presents several aspects of such a logic. 1 Introduction My colleagues, students, and I have been engaged in a long-term project to build a natural language using intelligent agent....
