Abstract
In little more than a decade, a number of different approaches to nonmonotonic reasoning have been devised. Each of them proposes a framework for ‘jumping to conclusions’, that is, for tentatively inferring from given information rather more than is deductively implied. They are nonmonotonic in the sense that increasing the amount of information available as premises may sometimes lead to loss of some of the conclusions that can be drawn.Keywords
