We present a simple, yet general top-down query answering procedure for many-valued logic programming, which allow to deal with imprecision and some forms of uncertainty. The main features of the logic are: ii{i} the truth values are taken from a complete lattice; ii{ii} computable functions may appear in the rule bodies to manipulate truth values. To answer queries, we provide a novel and simple tabling-like top-down procedure.

Abstract

We present a simple, yet general top-down query answering procedure for many-valued logic programming, which allow to deal with imprecision and some forms of uncertainty. The main features of the logic are: ii{i} the truth values are taken from a complete lattice; ii{ii} computable functions may appear in the rule bodies to manipulate truth values. To answer queries, we provide a novel and simple tabling-like top-down procedure.
