of the main qualitative calculi which have been developed over the last two decades. It …

This paper tackles the problem of evaluating the degree of inconsistency in spatial and
temporal qualitative reasoning. We first introduce postulates to propose a formal framework …

In this chapter, we discuss two research areas related to qualitative reasoning: firstly,
qualitative reasoning about dynamical systems, or qualitative physics, that aims at providing …

Qualitative Spatial and Temporal Reasoning is a central topic in Artificial Intelligence. In
particular, it is aimed at application scenarios dealing with uncertain information and thus …

Traditional belief revision usually considers generic logic formulas, whilst in practical
applications some formulas might even be inappropriate for beliefs. For instance, the …

Nous étudions le problème de la décision de la cohérence de réseaux de contraintes dans
le cadre de combinaisons de formalismes qualitatifs. Nous proposons un cadre formel qui …

This thesis proposes a practical model making it possible to implement a case-based
reasoning system that adapts processes represented as natural language text. The use of …

This chapter is focused on evaluation of the links between physiology of human body and
human emotional states in order to help specialists to perform a correct diagnosis correlated …

We are interested in the minimality problem in the context of combinations of qualitative
constraint networks (such as temporal sequences, multiscale networks, and loose …
