(LaTeX) Abstract:
In this paper, we extend first-order logic by a generalized, dyadic default quantifier, which is shown to be required for accurately representing more complex forms of default knowledge. We propose a general qualitative measure semantics and provide a sound and complete proof theory for the resulting monotonic entailment relation. We then present a suitable semantic-based nonmonotonic extension, normality maximization entailment, appropriate for first-order contexts, satisfying a defeasible deduction principle and verifying inference patterns like defeasible modus ponens and defeasible chaining. We discuss some representative examples and compare our proposal to other conditional frameworks.
