These beliefs are represented by probability distributions and how they affect each other is represented by logical constraints on these distributions. Within the full language of epistemic constraints, we distinguish a restricted class which offers computational benefits while still being powerful enough to allow for handling of many other argumentation formalisms and that can be used in applications that, for instance, rely on Likert scales. In this paper, we propose a model-based theorem prover for reasoning with the restricted epistemic language. date: 2019-09-30 date_type: published publisher: Springer official_url: https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-29765-7_5 oa_status: green full_text_type: other language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1666784 doi: 10.1007/978-3-030-29765-7_5 isbn_13: 978-3-030-29765-7 lyricists_name: Hunter, Anthony lyricists_id: AHUNT03 actors_name: Hunter, Anthony actors_id: AHUNT03 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science volume: 11726 place_of_pub: Cham event_title: European Conference on Quantitative and Symbolic Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty institution: European Conference on Quantitative and Symbolic Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty isbn: 978-3-030-29764-0 book_title: Proceedings of Symbolic and Quantitative Approaches to Reasoning with Uncertainty.
