which seems to be because the semantic interpretation of evidence in 3.7 is different in NARS than in PLN or most probabilistic treatments... this is why I suggested to look at how 3.7 is used to model a real situation, versus how that situation would be modeled in prob. theory... having a good test situation in mind might help to think about the syllogistic rules more clearly it needs to be a situation where the terms and relations are grounded in a system's experience, as that is what NARS and PLN semantics are both all about... ben ------------------------------------------- agi Archives: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/303/=now RSS Feed: https://www.listbox.com/member/archive/rss/303/ Modify Your Subscription: https://www.listbox.com/member/?member_id=8660244&id_secret=114414975-3c8e69 Powered by Listbox: http://www.listbox.com
