Maximum Entropy in Nilsson's Probabilistic Logic (2017)
Conference Proceeding
Kane, T. B. (2017). Maximum Entropy in Nilsson's Probabilistic Logic. In Proceedings of the 11th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (452-457)

Nilsson's Probabilistic Logic is a set theoretic mechanism for reasoning with uncertainty. We propose a new way of looking at the probability constraints enforced by the framework, which allows the expert to include conditional probabilities in the s...

Using Cognitive Tunnels in a New Approach to Building Social Elevators in the Information Society (2014)
Journal Article
Kane, T. B. (2014). Using Cognitive Tunnels in a New Approach to Building Social Elevators in the Information Society. Informatica, 38, 263-271

We are on the verge of developing artificial intelligences that may dwarf the capabilities of human intelligence. How we will interact and thrive alongside such intelligence will be a pressing societal problem. This paper addresses the question of th...
