Opis

This volume gives the proceedings of the sixteenth German Conference on Artificial Intelligence, held in the Gustav Stresemann Institute in Berlin from August 31 to September 3, 1992. The volume contains 24 papers presentedin the technical sessions, 8 papers selected from the workshop contributions, and an invited talk by D.M. Gabbay entitled "Howto construct a logic for your application." Topics discussed in the technical papers include: a model elimination calculus, a sorted logic, human theorem proving, deduction based on Shannon graphs, expert system applications, knowledge engineering, time interval networks, forward logic evaluation, concept support, heuristic inductivegeneralization, language engineering, feature logic, similarity assessment, and many others.
