This proceedings volume contains revised and reviewed papers
based on talks presented at the first International Workshop
on Nonmonotonic and Inductive Logic held in Karlsruhe,
December 1990. The workshop was supported by the
Volkswagen-Stiftung, Hannover, and provided a forum for
researchers from the two fields to communicate and find
areas of cooperation. The papersare organized into sections
on:
- Nonmonotonicity in logic programs
- Axiomatic approach to nonmonotonic reasoning
- Inductive inference
- Autoepistemic logic
- Belief updates
The bulk of the papers are devoted to nonmonotonic logic and
provide an up-to-date view of the current state of research
presented by leading experts in the field. A novelty in the
contributions from the area of inductive logic is the
analysis of nonmonotonicity in the theory of inductive
learning.
