    Extractions: Email mtw@cs.nott.ac.uk The title of my PhD is 'Logics for resource-bounded agents'. The project is to create a system of logics that enable one to ascribe explicit beliefs to AI agents and which does not suffer from the assumptions idealised resources, such as logical omniscience or instantaneous deliberation. My supervisors on this project are Natasha Alechina and Brian Logan I am also supervised by Eros Corazza in the Philosophy department. I'm interested in the use of context in referring and understanding language, and in how we ascribe attitudes like belief to agents. I am a member of the Foundations of Programming research group at the University of Nottingham. I won the 2002 Lumsden Memorial Essay Prize (Department of Philosophy, University of Nottingham). I am currently looking at ways of describing reasoners that take into account the fact that deliberation takes time and so, faced with a problem to solve in a limited period of time, an agent may not reach a conclusion, even if it has the capacity to do so, had it been given more time.

Study of texts in philosophy and the human sciences augmented by awareness exercises, improvisatory enactments, and expressive artwork.. The student is encouraged to confront the problem of his or her own identity. 201 Introduction to Logic (R) (3) An introduction to modern symbolic logic, with an emphasis on methods for the evaluation nd construction of deductive arguments, and on the concepts of validity, consistency, and implication. Topics selected from among the following: informal fallacies, logic and ordinary language, induction, the scientific method, the logic of Aristotle, and the relations between logic and other areas in philosophy. 226 Ethics An examination of the quest for certainty with respect to the nature of human goodness, including the relation of duty to pleasure and happiness, the nature of moral obligation and responsibility, the resolution of conflicts between individual and social values, and the possibility of objective justification of value judgments.

According to this view, an agent's degrees of belief are best represented by the probability function, out of all those that satisfy constraints imposed by the agent's background knowledge, that maximises entropy. But objective Bayesianism has been criticised on two counts: (i) that it is computationally intractable, and (ii) that it gives the wrong results when the agent's knowledge includes causal relationships. I'll give a gentle introduction to objective Bayesianism and a response to the two criticisms. Computational intractability can be overcome, I'll argue, by using Bayesian nets, and furthermore causal constraints can be successfully integrated into this framework.

While Popper advocated a hypothetico-deductive logic of causal discovery, inductive accounts are currently in vogue. Many inductive approaches depend on the causal Markov condition as a fundamental assumption. This condition, I maintain, is not universally valid, though it is justifiable as a default assumption. In which case the results of the inductive causal learning procedure must be tested before they can be accepted. This yields a synthesis of the hypothetico-deductive and inductive accounts, which forms the focus of this paper. I discuss the justification of this synthesis and draw an analogy between objective Bayesianism and the account of causal learning presented here.

I encourage you to contact me as often as you like during term in order to discuss matters arising from this course. This course provides an introduction to several recently developed branches of non-classical logic. We will begin with a general review of propositional logic and then compare classical propositional logic to systems of relevance logic, modal logic, many-valued logic and paraconsistent logic. The seminar will be of value to students with an interest in the philosophical foundations of logic, to computer science students interested in theories of computational rationality, and to others who are interested in issues at the intersection between logic and epistemology.

Are there kinds of explanation? Do explanations correspond to domains of knowledge? Why do we seek explanations, and what do they accomplish? How central are causes to explanation? The essays draw on work in the history and philosophy of science, the philosophy of mind and language, the development of concepts in children, conceptual change in adults, and reasoning in human and artificial systems. They also introduce emerging perspectives on explanation from computer science, linguistics, and anthropology.
