Where Is My Research Going

   The general theme of my thesis will be asking how to deal with inconsistent information in common sense reasoning.  So, two areas I will deal with are argumentation and belief revision.  By argumentation, I mean works by Anthony Hunter, John Pollock, Henry Prakken, Phan Minh Dung and many other authors.  It is more within the area of AI.

More specifically, I will focus on argumentation and its connection with belief revision.  So, for the belief revision part, I will use study in argumentation to do justification approach belief revision.  And, if it is within my ability, I also want to view all these things I have mentioned under the framework of epistemic logic.  So, I hope I can also deal with ‘dynamicizing’ justification logic in my thesis.
