Information granulation, cognitive logic and natural pragmatics for intelligent agents

Abstract

The paper is devoted to the development of Cog- nitive Logic in the framework of building intelligent agents. The drawbacks of classical mathematical logic and automated reasoning are discussed. The difference between classical logic and human cognition is shown on simple examples. The concept of cognitive agent, in particular, cognitive robot, is considered, its architecture is presented. Information granulation based on pragmatics is viewed as a principal capacity of cognitive agent. The role of logical pragmatics in cognitive logic is revealed. The emphasis is made on the development of generalized logical values and formation of various logical worlds to construct granular log- ical semantics and pragmatics. An extended definition of logical world is proposed. In the context of developing cognitive graphics for applied logics, the colored representation of Hasse diagrams is suggested. Possible applications of colored representation of logical worlds are discussed.
