Abstract

Recent research has shown that under some circumstances, the conventional minimal change methods were inappropriate for updating knowledge bases with disjunctive effects. In this paper we propose a new method for the knowledge base update based on a persistence principle, which provides conservative results for updating knowledge bases with implicit and disjunctive effects. As it will be shown, our approach avoids the difficulty with the minimal change principle. To characterize properties of the persistence-based update method, we investigate the relationship between the minimal change update semantics and persistent update semantics in detail.
