Researchers explore ASP(Q) for handling inconsistent prioritized data

Researchers have developed a new method using answer set programming with quantifiers (ASP(Q)) to handle inconsistent prioritized data. This approach allows for querying data where conflicting facts have defined priority levels, leading to three types of optimal repairs: Pareto-, globally-, and completion-optimal. The paper introduces the first implementation of globally-optimal repair-based semantics and a tractable under-approximation called grounded semantics, with experimental results demonstrating their feasibility and impact.

    Using ASP(Q) to Handle Inconsistent Prioritized Data

    arXiv:2604.21603v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We explore the use of answer set programming (ASP) and its extension with quantifiers, ASP(Q), for inconsistency-tolerant querying of prioritized data, where a priority relation between conflicting facts is exploited to de…
