Scheduling a presentation + discussion on plausible reasoning

It has been a long time since our last teleconference for the Cognitive AI Community Group, and I would like to schedule a teleconference to present the work I have been busy on in respect to plausible reasoning, including a demo [1], and to invite discussion on the conjecture that plausible reasoning and human-like AI will eventually replace the semantic web.

This follows on from the workshop on imperfect knowledge [2] that I co-chaired with William Van Woensel earlier this year as part of the Knowledge Graph conference (KGC-2022).  I am now looking forward to presenting the work on 12th September at the upcoming workshop on analogies: from theory to practice as part of the International Conference on Case-Based Reasoning (ICCBR) [3].

In essence, plausible reasoning deals with imperfect knowledge, and mimics human argumentation for and against a premise in question. The plausible knowledge notation (PKN) is a proposed format that blends symbolic graphs with qualitative metadata in lieu of detailed statistics.  The demo presents a variety of examples including reasoning with analogies. I am currently extending it to further support fuzzy quantifiers such as few, many and most. Plausible reasoning subsumes fuzzy logic and qualitative reasoning.

I am hoping to arrange the teleconference sometime in the week starting Monday, 19th September. Please email me directly to indicate which days and times (including timezone) are good for you, and I will then create a doodle poll to select the best slot.

Best regards,
Dave
