Abstract: "We often encounter a situation in which we are forced to make some decision even if there is not enough information. In that situation, we normally use common sense to draw a conclusion from the incomplete knowledge. This reasoning mechanism can be regarded as meta-reasoning which ch...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract: "We often encounter a situation in which we are forced to make some decision even if there is not enough information. In that situation, we normally use common sense to draw a conclusion from the incomplete knowledge. This reasoning mechanism can be regarded as meta-reasoning which chooses the preferred models from several consistent models. This paper formalizes common sense reasoning of tree-structured inheritance systems and temporal projection into one framework, minimal change. Both types of reasoning have a common mechanism to prefer a model which changes minimally in one direction. In inheritance systems, the direction is from superclass to subclass, and in temporal projection, the direction is from earlier state to later state."
