A General Framework for Modelling Conditional Reasoning - Preliminary Report

Giovanni Casini, Umberto Straccia

Abstract: We introduce and investigate here a formalisation for conditionals that allows the definition of a broad class of reasoning systems. This framework covers the most popular kinds of conditional reasoning in logic-based KR: the semantics we propose is appropriate for a structural analysis of those conditionals that do not satisfy closure properties associated to classical logics.
