Abstract

Since knowledge is usually incomplete, agents need to introspect on what they know and do not know . The best known models of introspective reasoning suffer from intractability or even undecidability if the underlying language is first-order . To better suit the fact that agents have limited resources, we recently proposed a model of decidable introspective reasoning in first-order knowledge bases (KBs). However, this model is deficient in that it does not allow for quantifying-in, which is needed to distinguish between knowing that and knowing who. In this paper, we extend our earlier work by adding quantifying-in and equality to a model of limited belief that integrates ideas from possible-world semantics and relevance logic.
