Deciding knowledge in security protocols under some e-voting theories

Mouhebeddine Berrima, Narjes Ben Rajeb, Véronique Cortier (2011)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

In the last decade, formal methods have proved their interest when analyzing security protocols. Security protocols require in particular to reason about the attacker knowledge. Two standard notions are often considered in formal approaches: deducibility and indistinguishability relations. The first notion states whether an attacker can learn the value of a secret, while the latter states whether an attacker can notice some difference between protocol runs with different values of the secret. Several...

Deciding whether a relation defined in Presburger logic can be defined in weaker logics

Christian Choffrut (2008)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

We consider logics on ℤ and ℕ which are weaker than Presburger arithmetic and we settle the following decision problem: given a k-ary relation on ℤ and ℕ which are first order definable in Presburger arithmetic, are they definable in these weaker logics? These logics, intuitively, are obtained by considering modulo and threshold counting predicates for differences of two variables.

Decision problems among the main subfamilies of rational relations

Olivier Carton, Christian Choffrut, Serge Grigorieff (2006)

RAIRO - Theoretical Informatics and Applications

We consider the four families of recognizable, synchronous, deterministic rational and rational subsets of a direct product of free monoids. They form a strict hierarchy and we investigate the following decision problem: given a relation in one of the families, does it belong to a smaller family? We settle the problem entirely when all monoids have a unique generator and fill some gaps in the general case. In particular, adapting a proof of Stearns, we show that it is recursively decidable whether...

Declarative and procedural semantics of fuzzy similarity based unification

Peter Vojtáš (2000)

Kybernetika

In this paper we argue that for fuzzy unification we need a procedural and declarative semantics (as opposed to the two valued case, where declarative semantics is hidden in the requirement that unified terms are syntactically – letter by letter – identical). We present an extension of the syntactic model of unification to allow near matches, defined using a similarity relation. We work in Hájek’s fuzzy logic in narrow sense. We base our semantics on a formal model of fuzzy logic programming extended...

Decomposition of high dimensional pattern spaces for hierarchical classification

Rajeev Kumar, Peter I Rockett (1998)

Kybernetika

In this paper we present a novel approach to decomposing high dimensional spaces using a multiobjective genetic algorithm for identifying (near-)optimal subspaces for hierarchical classification. This strategy of pre-processing the data and explicitly optimising the partitions for subsequent mapping onto a hierarchical classifier is found to both reduce the learning complexity and the classification time with no degradation in overall classification error rate. Results of partitioning pattern spaces...

Default logic as a formalism for understanding commonsense reasoning.

Gianni Amati, Luigia Carlucci Aiello, Fiora Pirri (1996)

Mathware and Soft Computing

Commonsense reasoning is the reasoning of agents interacting with the real world. Non monotonic reasoning is a well developed research area gathering the logical formalisms that treat commonsense reasoning. One of the best known of such formalisms is Default logic. In this paper we discuss Default logic at both the proof-theoretic and semantics levels and show that Default logic provides a clear and formal framework to understand the logical nature of commonsense reasoning.
