This book is about the language of logic programming with answer set semantics and its application
to knowledge representation reasoning and declarative problem solving This book will be useful
to researchers in logic programming declarative programming articial intelligence knowledge
representation and autonomous agents to knowledge engineers who would like to create and use
large knowledge bases to software practitioners who would like to use declarative programming for
fast prototyping and for developing critical programs that must be correct with respect a formal
specication to programmers of autonomous agents who would like to build intelligent components
such as planners schedulers and diagnosis and repair systems and to students and teachers using
it as a text book in undergraduate and graduate classes
Knowledge management and knowledge-based intelligence are areas of importance in today's economy and society, and their exploitation requires representation via the development of a declarative interface whose input language is based on logic. Chitta Baral demonstrates how to write programs that behave intelligently by giving them the ability to express knowledge and reason about it. He presents a language, AnsProlog, for both knowledge representation and reasoning, and declarative problem solving. Many of the results have never appeared before in book form but are organized here for those wishing to learn more about the subject, either in courses or through self-study. |
