Non Monotonic Reasoning

Non-monotonic reasoning focuses on developing computational systems that can reason and draw conclusions in the face of incomplete or evolving information, unlike classical logic which assumes all information is known and unchanging. Current research emphasizes integrating non-monotonic reasoning into neural-symbolic systems, such as Logic Tensor Networks, and applying these enhanced systems to complex tasks like visual abstract reasoning and multi-agent collaboration. This research aims to improve the robustness and adaptability of AI systems, particularly in domains requiring commonsense reasoning and the ability to revise conclusions based on new evidence, with applications ranging from air traffic management to human-computer interaction.
