Project: Reasoning with graded properties, RGP, GA18-00113S

• Funding: Czech Science Foundation
• Status: Active
• Date: 2018-01-01 to 2020-12-31
• Contribution: 230916
• description:

  Graded properties are ubiquitous in human discourse and reasoning. They are characterized by the fact that they may apply with different intensity to different objects. Typical examples are vague properties (e.g. “tall” or “rich”), that is, those that do not establish a clear distinction between objects that satisfy them and those that do not, and hence have blurry boundaries and borderline cases, and generate sorites paradoxes. But also many properties with well-defined boundaries can be seen as graded (e.g. “acute angle” or “guilty”). Seen as a science of correct reasoning, Logic should, in particular, explain the notion of consequence in scenarios involving graded properties. We aim at developing a logical framework for reasoning with graded properties that, by employing formal tools from mathematical fuzzy logic, goes beyond the simple classical bivalent analysis. In particular, we plan a new analysis of sorites paradoxes, a study of relations to other graded theories in linguistics, and an account of counterfactual and defeasible reasoning with graded notions.

ManyVal 2017

• Topic: Reasoning under uncertainty and inconsistency
• Type: Workshop
• Date: 2017-11-15 to 2017-11-17
• Place: Toulouse, France
• Lecturer: - Leila Amgoud (CNRS, IRIT Toulouse) - Lluis Godo (IIIA-CSIC Barcelona, Spain) -Tomas Kroupa (Czech Academy of Sciences, Prague, Czech Rep) - Steven Schockaert (University of Cardiff, UK)
• Coverage: ManyVal is a series of international workshops on the logical and algebraic aspects of many-valued reasoning. The aim of the workshops is to gather both established and young researchers sharing an interest for this topic. Accordingly, each edition has a sharp focus. The attendance is limited in order to facilitate close and informal interaction. If possible there are no parallel sessions. ManyVal'17 focused on Many-valued logic and reasoning under uncertainty and inconsistency: - many-valuedness in argumentation - many-valued logic programming - logics of possibility and probability - logics of similarity - many-valued modal logics - paraconsistent logics - states and games on many-valued algebras - foundations of many-valued logics
