Description for Optimization Methods for Logical Inference
Hardcover. Logic has recently become a basic modelling tool alongside mathematics, and the two styles of modelling are beginning to combine. This volume exploits the similarity of certain logical and optimization problems to solve inference problems more rapidly than with traditional AI techniques. Series: Wiley-Interscience Series in Discrete Mathematics and Optimization. Num Pages: 365 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PBCD; PBK. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 243 x 160 x 25. Weight in Grams: 654.
Merging logic and mathematics in deductive inference-an innovative, cutting-edge approach.
Optimization methods for logical inference? Absolutely, say Vijay Chandru and John Hooker, two major contributors to this rapidly expanding field. And even though "solving logical inference problems with optimization methods may seem a bit like eating sauerkraut with chopsticks. . . it is the mathematical structure of a problem that determines whether an optimization model can help solve it, not the context in which the problem occurs."
Presenting powerful, proven optimization techniques for logic inference problems, Chandru and Hooker show how optimization models can ... Read more
