摘要: We develop a formalism for reasoning with defaults that are expressed different levels of firmness. Necessary and sufficient conditions consistency established, unique ranking the rules is found, called Z+, which renders models as normal possible subject to conditions. provide necessary machinery testing consistency, computing Z+ drawing set plausible conclusions it entails.
