Eleventh International Workshop on
Non-Monotonic Reasoning
Lake District, England, May 30 - June 1, 2006
Special session on
Belief change and nonmonotonic reasoning go hand in hand.
Over the years, research in belief change has taken several
interesting turns and seen many novel developments.
Moreover, it has allowed us to see other areas of endeavour in a
new light.
As a way of capturing commonsense reasoning, for instance,
belief change provides a unique perspective.
However, there is still much work to be done,
many interesting challenges to be overcome and
problems to be explored.
The specialized session on Belief Change
is a one-day event intended to bring together researchers interested
in the area of belief change, and to discuss current research,
results, and problems of a theoretical, foundational or practical nature.
In particular, researchers from allied fields are encouraged to
submit papers and participate in the session.
This session will be a part of the technical program of the
Eleventh International Workshop on Non-Monotonic Reasoning (NMR-06),
to be held in the Lake District area, UK,
immediately following the KR-06 conference.
The goal is to promote further development
of the theory of belief change as well as connections to other
research areas in nonmonotonic reasoning,
knowledge representation and reasoning,
logics of belief and knowledge,
and artificial intelligence.
Authors are invited to submit original papers on all
aspects of belief change.
The list of topics of interest includes but is not limited to:
Belief Change and Updates
Topics
We also welcome suggestions for panel discussions.
All NMR-06 sessions have the same submission requirements. Submissions are limited to 9 pages using KR paper format. Send a PDF file with the submission to each of the organizers by e-mail.
