Abstract. We present an approach for studying logical properties of problemsolving methods (PSMs) for knowledge-intensive tasks. It is based on semantic tableaux (a deduction-style theorem-proving technique). We show how tableaux can be manipulated in a methodical way to formalize non-deductive style PSMs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
