We explore a family of supraclassical consequence relations obtained by varying the criteria according to which counterexamples to classical entailment may be deemed tolerable. This provides a different perspective on the rational consequence relations of nonmonotonic logic, as well as introducing new kinds of entailment with a diversity of potential contextual applications.

Author:Booth, R; Meyer, T; Varzinczak, IDate:Aug 2013We introduce Propositional Typicality Logic (PTL), a logic for reasoning about typicality. We do so by enriching classical propositional logic with a typicality operator of which the intuition is to capture the most typical (or normal) ...Read more
