A preferential interpretation of MultiLayer Perceptrons in a conditional logic with typicality

Mario Alviano, Francesco Bartoli, Marco Botta et al.

In this paper we investigate the relationships between a multipreferential semantics for defeasible reasoning in knowledge representation and a multilayer neural network model. Weighted knowledge bases for a simple description logic with typicality are considered under a (many-valued) ``concept-wise" multipreference semantics. The semantics is used to provide a preferential interpretation of MultiLayer Perceptrons (MLPs). A model checking and an entailment based approach are exploited in the verification of conditional properties of MLPs.

User modeling for social and affective robots

Cristina Gena, Federica Cena, Marco Botta et al.

This paper presents our first attempt to integrate user modeling features in social and affective robots. We propose a cloud-based architecture for modeling the user-robot interaction in order to re-use the approach with different kind of social robots.
