To Preference via Entrenchment
Annals of Pure and Applied Logic 96 (1--3):141--155 (1999)
Abstract
We introduce a simple generalization of Gardenfors and Makinson’s epistemic entrenchment called partial entrenchment. We show that preferential inference can be generated as the sceptical counterpart of an inference mechanism defined directly on partial entrenchment.Author's Profile
