##### Three Approaches to Knowledge and Belief
Our robot will also have to reason about its own knowledge and that of other robots and people. This section contrasts the approaches to knowledge and belief characteristic of philosophy, philosophical logic and artificial intelligence. Knowledge and belief have long been studied in epistemology, philosophy of mind and in philosophical logic. Since about 1960, knowledge and belief have also been studied in AI. (Halpern 1986) and (Vardi 1988) contain recent work, mostly oriented to computer science including AI. It seems to me that philosophers have generally treated knowledge and belief as complete natural kinds . According to this view there is a fact to be discovered about what beliefs are. Moreover, once it is decided what the objects of belief are (e.g. sentences or propositions), the definitions of belief ought to determine for each such object p whether the person believes it or not. This last is the completeness mentioned above. Of course, only human and sometimes animal beliefs have mainly been considered. Philosophers have differed about whether machines can ever be said to have beliefs, but even those who admit the possibility of machine belief consider that what beliefs are is to be determined by examining human belief.

 KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEF An Introduction to the Logic of the Two Notions JAAKKO HINTIKKA P repared by Vincent F. Hendricks JOHN SYMONS King's College Publications, 2005 Abstract Blurbs Cover Abstract In 1962 Jaakko Hintikka published Knowledge and Belief. An Introduction to the Logic of the Two Notions with Cornell University Press. There has hardly been a paper or a book on epistemic and doxastic logic since not referring to this seminal treatise. Although everybody in logic, mainstream and formal epistemology, game-theory, economics, computer science and social software refer to the book it is very likely that a great many have never literally had their hands on it as it went out of print in the late 1960's (second printing in 1964, third printing in 1967 and fourth printing in 1969). It is our pleasure to provide the interdisciplinary community of logicians, epistemologists, game-theorists, computer scientists and other interested parties, with this new edition of Knowledge and Belief This edition has not been revised, only extended. There are two with each other related reasons for the extended version. Firstly, albeit it is generally acknowledged that Jaakko Hintikka is one of the founding fathers of epistemic and doxastic logic, his fundamental epistemological ambition with developing these logics has generally been neglected by formal and mainstream epistemologists alike. Thus, the current edition has been extended with a separate introductory chapter showing how Hintikka from the outset has been engaged in a dialectic movement between epistemology and logic. Secondly, his movement has been going on for more than 40 years so this edition includes some of Hintikka's latest papers on the subject.

In general, an epistemic model M may attribute more information to an agent A than can be captured by the object language L. M may contain two worlds, for example, which can be distinguished by A, even though they satisfy exactly the same formulas in L. So, given L, we can ask: which (L-dependent) properties of M assure that L is able to capture all the information modelled by M. I will give intuitive motivations and formal definitions of two such properties: tightness and saturation. Also, I will outline some applications of this idea. But I will leave its general relevance open to discussion.

We consider interactive epistemic models where individuals are described by both their "knowledge" and their "beliefs." Three intersubjective consistency conditions are examined: Intersubjective Caution (if an individual believes something to be common belief then he knows it to be common belief), Truth of Common Belief (only true facts are commonly believed) and Qualitative Agreement. These conditions are employed in characterizations of the following properties which describe either the extent of intersubjective truth and/or the logic of common belief: common belief in no error, common knowledge of common belief, negative introspection of common belief, coincidence of common knowledge and common belief, and collapse of individual belief and knowledge. We also discuss to what extent the three fundamental conditions can be viewed as intersubjective rationality conditions.

##### Abstract
This paper presents a logic of knowledge, belief and certainty, which allows us to explicitly express the knowledge, belief and certainty of an agent. A computationally grounded model, called interpreted KBC systems, is given for interpreting this logic. The relationships between knowledge, belief and certainty are explored. In particular, certainty entails belief; and to the agent what it is certain of appears to be the knowledge. To formalize those agents that are able to introspect their own belief and certainty, we identify a subclass of interpreted KBC systems, called introspective KBC systems. We provide sound and complete axiomatizations for the logics. We show that the validity problem for the interpreted KBC systems is PSPACE-complete, and the same problem for introspective KBC systems is co-NP complete, thus no harder than that of the propositional logic.

Because of AristotleÂs emphasis on questions about what kinds of people we ought to be and what kinds of lives we ought to live, and his way of explaining his thoughts on these questions through discussions of arete his philosophical approach is typically described as "virtue theory." character of moral agents themselves. With the revival of interest in virtue theory, the ethical virtues and vices came to be seen as having more important roles to play, roles that make them valuable both for understanding the motivations underlying an agentÂs actions, and for evaluating agents as praiseworthy or blameworthy. In the period since the revival of virtue ethics, ethical evaluation has come to focus to a greater extent on situated agents themselves, and the habits and dispositions that constitute their moral character. are a matter of debate, and part of the background that should concern us here. 21.

But we can get close Fishy No it can't nothing is certain... Except for yourself... You can be certain of yourself to some extent, the rest is a big unknown. Nothing can be proven. All that we can do is create theory's some more likely then others. Spelljammer Knowledge is knowing something. Belief is not knowing something, but under a very good impression that's the way it is. A Christian BELIEVES in God. A Christian KNOWS he's Christian. I BELEIVE fruit grows on other planets. I KNOW an apple is red. Get it? Nothing can be proven absolutely because first we need to define proof, and then prove something based on that definition of proof which you adopted. But you can never prove that a definition of proof is right because to prove it you will need another definition of proof. So knowledge is based on a definition of proof that we believe in without proving it.  31.

Such GAMES have arbitrary rules, and tend to schism and diverge, and to encourage enthusiastic and/or violent behaviours in their players. • Statements included herein may be subject to any and/or all of these PHILOSOPHICAL WARNINGS .

Ralph Slaght Teaches Difference Between Knowledge And Belief Ralph Slaght reviews steps to solve a problem in Logic with Elizabeth Cassidy 05, . Publications Is Justified True belief knowledge? http://www.lafayette.edu/news.php/view/2182 ##### Ralph Slaght Teaches Difference between Knowledge and Belief ##### Professor is retiring after 34 years. Ralph Slaght reviews steps to solve a problem in logic with Elizabeth Cassidy '05, history and government major. EASTON, Pa.( www.lafayette.edu ), February 13, 2003 Â "What is knowledge? And what does it mean to know something?" asks Ralph Slaght, Hogg Professor of Mental and Moral Philosophy. "It is difficult to define the concept. Most people say they know something, but it's really a belief." Students in his Philosophical Analysis course write a paper a week, learning to read an article or book critically, extract and evaluate the key arguments, and write cogent comments. "Often there are inconsistent beliefs" in an article, he says, asking the students, "Can you prove the validity of the argument?" These critical thinking and evaluation skills are useful in any discipline. Slaght studies philosophical questions such as the difference between knowledge and belief. An early adopter of technology, he taught himself computer programming. "I was teaching logic when I learned of a computer program to help students," says Slaght. "I got a copy of the program, which was too advanced to run on Lafayette's computer at the time. I thought, 'I can learn this stuff,' and taught myself programming." When Lafayette President David Ellis wanted to increase the use of computers in the humanities, he asked Slaght to help. "He was essentially paying me to learn to do something I'd enjoy anyway," says Slaght, who went on to direct the academic computing center for a year while a search was underway for a permanent director. He was also one of three faculty who developed the proposal to create a computer science major, which was controversial at that time. 38.

39. AI Group Research Topics
Before the start of the 20th century, Logic as a research field had its home epistemic Logic (the Logic of knowledge), and belief and knowledge change.
http://www.cs.otago.ac.nz/research/ai/applied-logic.html
 Defeasible Reasoning AI Research Group Department of Computer Science Applied Logic A consequence of the association between logic and computing, and particularly the association between logic and artificial intelligence, has been an evolution in the way logic is perceived. A century ago, logic was held to be about proofs. Half a century ago, logic was held to be about truth. Now the notions of proof and truth have been assimilated into a larger picture, for logic is known to be about agents: an agent's information about a system may be represented either model-theoretically or sententially, and theorem-proving algorithms simulate consequence relations representing the conclusions agents may rationally draw from the information at their disposal. A century ago, logic was assumed to involve a single formal language in which all statements of interest could be expressed, and to have a single intended interpretation, namely the universe. Now logic is known to involve purpose-built formal languages designed to permit the representation of knowledge about specific systems, and our frequent inability to reduce the class of models to a single member (incompleteness) is taken for granted as merely a reflection of the differences in expressiveness between object language and metalanguage, whereas earlier such results were regarded as surprising and philosophically significant. A century ago, logic was thought to be about the formalisation only of arguments that were universally valid, and indeed this constituted the principle grounds for criticism of the notion of induction by Hume and Popper. Now logic is known to enable the formalisation of defeasible reasoning, in which the evidence supports conclusions only tentatively, and the legitimacy of basing hypotheses on experimental results has been re-established.

ADVERTISING JOBS ... Post jobs Reference Frame Helen Quinn Helen Quinn I remember None of these words has a unique physics meaning, but their meanings as we use them among ourselves and as nonscientists hear them are very different. We need to be much more careful how and when we use them in talking to the public.
##### Hypothesis, model, and theory
Particle physicists look for data that do not fit standard-model predictions. They suspect this theory needs extension and want evidence of what direction to look for that extension. Whatever they learn will not cause quarks and gluons to be discarded. Geneticists are perhaps revamping the early stages of the tree of life into a more complex set of interconnections, but the later branching that is well established will not be invalidated by any such development. Theory evolves and changes, but the change is rarely revolutionary. Even the truly new developments such as quantum physics or relativity do not completely replace what was known; they just delimit its domain of applicability. The science press and scientists themselves do science a disservice when they seek to dramatize a discovery by emphasizing that it discredits a previous theory. Such coverage typically does not discuss whether the earlier theory was tentative or whether the new result modifies a well-established but incomplete theory. This dramatization feeds the popular image that all scientific knowledge is tentative. Much is tentative, but much is well understood and unlikely to be discredited. We scientists need to convey more about the status of our knowledge than can be learned from the muddy "most scientists believe" statement. We need our listeners to know what is tentative and what is not so that they understand better the ragged but cumulative progression of science and can use current knowledge effectively, with an understanding of its inherent uncertainties, in personal and political decision making.

42. A Logic Of Implicit And Explicit Belief

##### A Logic of Implicit and Explicit Belief
Hector J. Levesque As part of an on-going project to understand the foundations of Knowledge Representation, we are attempting to characterize a kind of belief that forms a more appropriate basis for Knowledge Representation systems than that captured by the usual possible-world formalizations begun by Hintikka. In this paper, we point out deficiencies in current semantic treatments of knowledge and belief (including recent syntactic approaches) and suggest a new analysis in the form of a logic that avoids these shortcomings and is also more viable computationally.

43. THE PASS BETWEEN KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEF
The surprising thing is that this passage between belief and knowledge . The pass will have to report on the Logic of this thought which was there where
http://www.londonsociety-nls.org.uk/Gueguan_pass.htm
 From Psychoanalytical Notebooks 3, 1999 : Love THE PASS BETWEEN KNOWLEDGE AND BELIEF Pierre-Gilles Gueguen Among the responsibilities which fall to the analyst, there is a special one which falls to the School and its analysts: that of keeping the pass alive, and making of it something which is lived [ faire vivre la passe ]. LacanÂs wish, as formulated explicitly in Note italienne , was that analysts should testify to the importance they attach to their belief in the unconscious, and that they should be recruited on that basis. Under the impulsion of Jacques-Alain Miller, we have hence created the School of the Pass. This responsibility, once formulated, has appeared in our orientation as an ethical duty. I will choose to comment upon this duty from two practices: that of the passant who strives towards a speaking well [ bien dire ] that conforms to (this) ethics, and that of the analyst of the cartel of the pass, who searches to discern in the testimony the right angle under which the articulation of the discourse of the patient to the experience of the real manifests itself. To tell the truth, this is not limiting, for each one of us who claims to analyse themselves, is concerned with the belief in the unconscious linked to oneÂs practical experience of it. Let us begin with the analysand in the procedure of the pass. He testifies to a relation with what we call an Âunconscious knowledgeÂ. It is even on the basis of this knowledge, acquired from oneÂs own analysis, that he attempts to make the Cartel perceive the trajectory of his treatment, and how he has been able to touch the real. As always, in analysis, two points are essential in this testimony: the beginning and the end of the analysis. They determine a course in which the history of the analysand, in its signifying determinations, has been taken up and reshaped.

##### Epistemic logic
Jump to: navigation search Epistemic logic is a subfield of modal logic that is concerned with reasoning about knowledge . While epistemology has a long philosophical tradition dating back to Ancient Greece , epistemic logic is a much more recent development with applications in many fields, including philosophy theoretical computer science artificial intelligence economics and linguistics . While philosophers since Aristotle have discussed modal logic, and Medieval philosophers such as Ockham and Duns Scotus developed many of their observations, it was C.I. Lewis who created the first symbolic and systematic approach to the topic, in 1912. It continued to mature as a field, reaching its modern form in 1963 with the work of Kripke Many papers were written in the fifties that spoke of a logic of knowledge in passing, but it was von Wright 's paper An Essay in Modal Logic from 1951 that is seen as a founding document. It was not until 1962 that another Finn

52. Objective Knowledge By Karl Popper
Objective knowledge. A Realist View of Logic, Physics, and History (1966) because I do not want to put beliefs into Logic, for wellknown reasons.
http://www.marxists.org/reference/subject/philosophy/works/at/popper.htm
Karl Popper (1966)
##### A Realist View of Logic, Physics, and History (1966)
Source Objective Knowledge (1972) publ. Clarendon Press. The second last chapter is reproduced here. Thus, we have not made our world. So far we have not even changed it much, compared with the changes achieved by animals and plants. Yet we have created a new kind of product or artefact which promises in time to work changes in our corner of the world as great as those worked by our predecessors, the oxygen-producing plants, or the island-building corals. These new products, which are decidedly of our own making, are our myths, our ideas, and especially our scientific theories: theories about the world we live in. I suggest that we may look upon these myths, these ideas and theories, as some of the most characteristic products of human activity. Like tools, they are organs evolving outside our skins. They are exosomatic artefacts. Thus we may count among these characteristic products especially what is called 'human knowledge'; where we take the word 'knowledge' in the objective or impersonal sense, in which it may be said to be contained in a book; or stored in a library; or taught in a university. When referring to human knowledge, I shall usually have this objective sense of the word 'knowledge' in mind. This allows us to think of knowledge produced by men as analogous to the honey produced by bees: the honey is made by bees, stored by bees, and consumed by bees; and the individual bee which consumes honey will not, in general, consume only the bit it has produced itself: honey is also consumed by the drones which have not produced any at all (not to mention that stored treasure of honey which the bees may lose to bears or beekeepers). It is also interesting to note that, in order to keep up its powers to produce more honey, each working bee has to consume honey, some of it usually produced by other bees.

##### Background/Context
The project involved the development of proof methods for combined temporal and modal logics which are useful for specifying and verifying complex systems such as multi-agent systems, security protocols and knowledge games. In particular, the focus of the project was on developing proof methods for the combination of propositional linear-time temporal logic with the modal logic S5 to represent knowledge, and allowing interaction between the modal and temporal components. Work on temporal logic and verification is widespread, both within the UK and internationally. The work of this project is well known internationally, and members of the research team have been centrally involved in the development of the field of temporal logic during the period of this project. For example, Clare Dixon was local organisation co-chair in 2002 of the TIME International Symposium of Temporal Representation and Reasoning, the only regular international event concerning temporal reasoning. Clare was one of four editors of a Special Issue on Temporal Representation and Reasoning of the Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence journal in 2001 [ ] and is currently co-editing a special issue of the Journal of Logic and Computation related to time in Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence and Databases.
