The semantics for one of the best known paraconsistent logics, LP, permits sentences to be both true and false; but at the same time, the semantic characterization of the logical particles is classical. We define the notion of \"molecular logic\", of which all finite valued variants of LP are a type. Generally paraconsistent logics do not contain extensional conditionals. Molecular logics of n values may be conservatively extended to standard many valued logics of 2/sup n/-1 values, in which it is easy to define extensional conditionals with the usual detachment rules. The extension, while paraconsistent relative to a negation satisfying standard conditions on the original n values, is not paraconsistent relative to a negation satisfying standard conditions on the 2/sup n/-1 values of the extension. We conclude that the logic LP and its many valued generalizations are paraconsistent because of expressive incompleteness.","PeriodicalId":297353,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 31st IEEE International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124835890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Some questions, such as the complexity of the sets of satisfiable and valid formulas in various logics, are completely standard; others, such as the maximal size of representations of many-valued connectives, only make sense in a many-valued context. In this overview I concentrate mainly on two kinds of complexity problems related to many-valued logics: I discuss the complexity of the membership problem in various languages, such as the satisfiable, respectively, the valid formulas in some well-known logics. Two basic proof techniques an presented in some detail: a reduction of many-valued logic to mixed integer programming and a reduction to classical logic.","PeriodicalId":297353,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 31st IEEE International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117183163","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To improve the fault tolerance against faults with small false absolute values, we employ the activation function with the relatively gentle gradient for the last layer, and steepen the gradient of the function in the intermediate layer. For faults with large false absolute values, the function working as filter inhibits their influence by setting products of inputs and faulty weights to allowable values. The experimental results show that our NN is superior in fault tolerance and learning time to other NNs employing approaches based on fault injection, forcible weight limit and so forth.","PeriodicalId":297353,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings 31st IEEE International Symposium on Multiple-Valued Logic","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126073268","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
