In order to use preference relations for reasoning under uncertainty, it is necessary to perform sequential and parallel combinations of propagated information in a qualitative inference network. This paper discusses the rules for such sequential and parallel combinations.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/177","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/0177.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/177.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/bibtex/177","volume":{"slug":"1991","title":"Proceedings of the Twelfth International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1991","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1991/","year":1991,"location":"Sydney, New South Wales, Australia","dates":"24-30 August 1991","editors":"John Mylopoulos and Ray Reiter","isbn":"","publisher":"International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence","doi_prefix":""},"section":"Qualitative Reasoning","track":"Qualitative Reasoning","number":177,"pages":{"first":1204,"last":1208},"keywords":[],"videos":[],"references":[],"license_note":"Copyright International Joint Conferences on Artificial Intelligence."}
