Prolog Extensions Based on Tableau Calculus
Proceedings of the Ninth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence. Logic Programming. Pages 730-731.
Abstract
The intention of this paper is to help bridging the gap between logic programming and theorem proving. lt presents the design of a Gentzen type proof search procedure, based on classical tableau calculus, for knowledge bases consisting of arbitrary frrst order formulas. At each proof search step, when a new formula is to be chosen from the knowledge base, the procedure chooses in such a way that the search space is small. When applied to a Horn clause knowledge base and an atomic goal, it performs the same proof search steps as any PROLOGinterpreter would do. Hence, PROLOG can be viewed as a special Gentzen type procedure just as it is a special (namely, linear input) resolution procedure.
