It is based on the "connection method", which is a deductive inference technique for first order logic with significant possibilities for introducing ...

A sound and complete OR-parallel theorem prover for first order logic is presented, which is based on the connection method. The system PARTHEO consists of ...

This paper gives an outline of the architecture of a multiprocessor machine for deduction in first-order logic and its functional behavior.

This contribution concentrates on two aspects of massive parallelism and inference: first, the potential of parallelism in logic is investigated.

The technical contribution of this paper is in the detailed specification of a network inference mechanism. The network runs in parallel and can handle obvious.

Dec 4, 2008 · The connection method (CM) provides a general framework for automated deduction. It differs from similar deductive frameworks, (such as resolution or tableaux).

Jul 15, 2024 · The implementation of the first order logic constraints results in two coupled networks: (1) a clause network that represents the clause syntax; ...

We then discuss three major families of first-order inference algorithms: forward chaining and its applications to deductive databases and production systems ...

Roughly speaking, adequatness is the property of a theorem proving method to solve simpler problems faster than more difficult ones. Au- tomated inferencing ...

In traditional grammar, a predicate is one of the two main parts of a sentence the other being the subject, which the predicate modifies.
