A thesis submiued in Iulfilment of the requiremcuts for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 700 & ~ Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering The Univergity of Queensland Australia March 1999 Dedicated Lv the memory ofmy mother Statement of Sources 1declare that the work presented in this thesis is, to the best of my knowledge and belief, -1; original and my own work, except as acknowledged in the text, and that the material has nol been submiued, either in whole or in part, for a degree at this or any ether university Parts of the material have been reported in Cao (l997a, 1997b), Cao and Creasy (l996a, 1996b, 1997b, 1998a), published in Cao (l998a), Cao and Creasy (1997a, 1998b), Cao, Creasy and Wuwongse (l997a, 1997b), or accepted for publication in Cao (1998b) Tru H Cao Brisbane, Mareh 1999 Acknowledgements Whell drinking water, think ofits source Vietnamese proverb J wish to express my sincere gratitude to my supervisor, Dr Peter Creasy, for his kindness, advice and support throughout my PhD course rernember times he patiently listened to me presenting research issues on the whiteboard in his room These and other Limes having discussions with him have helped me to clarify, consolidate and dev elop ideas His tireless reading of my writings and commenting on every bit of them have helped me to improve my skill of scientific writing in English would like to thank the Commonwealth Government of Australia for awarding me an Overseas Postgraduate Research Scholarship, and the University of Queensland for a University of Queensland Postgraduate Research Scholarship My PhD program here would not have been feasible without thde financial supports would also like to thank the Department of Computer Science and Electrical Engineering for funding my attendance at several conferences 10 present my working papers and to have discussions with leading researchers in the field The questions and comments received l'rom these presentations and discussions have helped me to consolidate the idcus and sueugthen the arguments for many issues presented in this thesis AI this special milestone on my scholastic road, J think of teachers who have taught me since J started to learn the alphabet Although this thesis is the direct outcome of my PhI) study, behind ir are background knowledge and methodology that have been taught for years also think of people who have helped me in many different ways am grateful 10 aIl of them Nevertheless, neither this thesis nor anything else could have done without my beloved family There have been many limes when their faith in me has made the difference between giving up and trying again, many times when their love has helped me to find a strength did not know had can never thank them enough Abstract For dealing with the pervasive vagueness and imprecision of the real world as reflected in natural language, conce ptual graph programs have been extended to fuzzy conceptual graph programs However, as many fundamental issues have rern ained unaddressed and unresolved , no rigorous foundation has been established Therefore, this thesis aims at a sound and complete foundation for fuzzy conceptual graph progrumming, in particular, and for order-sorted fuzzy set logie prograrnming, in general There are three main problems in both the fuzzy logic area and the conceptual graph ureu to be solved in order ta attain this objective First, there has been no complete fuzzy set logic programming system with the fundamentals of a theorern proyer and, rnoreover, the previous definition of rnodeltheoretic sernanti cs of fuzzy set logic programs cannet deal with local inconsistency Second, there has been no fuzzy type framework to study lattice and mismatching degree properties of object types under uucertainty and/or partial truth Third, conceptual graph theory has Iacked the formai integration of funetional relation types and the notion of conjunctive types and, furthermore, the traditional CG unification is not adequate to obtuin a complete resolution style proof procedure with dose coupling of a type hierarchy and a program We solve these three problems correspondingly as follows Firstly, viewing fuzzy sets as lauice-based values, we extend classical annotated logic progruius to annotated fuzzy logic programs as a general framework for fuzzy set Iogic progranuning that can deal with local inconsistency Secondly, we propose a general framework of fuzzy types, also viewed as Iattice-based values, and extend annotated fuzzy logic programs ta ord er-sorted ones Thirdly, we formally integrute funetional relation types into couceptual gruph theory radieally as a part of its signature, introduce the nution of conjuuctive types into conceptual graph theory , and develop fuzzy conceptual graph prograrns based on order-sorted annotated fuzzy Iogic programs as an abstract framework We believe that this thesis is the first sound and complete the oretical foundation for ord er-sorted fuzzy set logic programming in the two complementary logic notations , numely, predic ute logic and conceptual graphs The results obtained for fuzzy couceptual graph programs are applicable to conceptual graph programs as special fuzzy ones and usetul for extending conceptual graphs with lattice-based annotations to enhance their scruautics It adds to efforts of the fusfn of couccptual gr aphs and uncertuinty logics towards a kuowledge representation and reasoning language thut upprouchcs human expression and reasoning, Table of Contents xiv List of Figures Chapter
