26 - 28 October 2023, Workshop on Reasoning with Imperfect Information in Social Settings, Pisa, Italy
The assessment and understanding of fragmented and vague information has become an increasingly pressing issue in social deliberations. Rational agents and decision-makers must navigate inconsistent and partial information while striving to organise it coherently, and shared information in communication requires agents to continually update their beliefs. Logical methods provide a natural toolkit for formally analysing these complex phenomena.
The workshop “Reasoning with Imperfect Information in Social Settings” at the Scuola Normale Superiore (University of Pisa), aims to bring together researchers in logic, formal and social epistemology, computer science, who are exploring the intricacies of information dynamics in social scenarios. Relevant topics include belief revision and merging, judgment and preference aggregation, multi-agent non-monotonic reasoning, multi-agent epistemic and deontic logic, as well as formal methods for representing social epistemic attitudes.
To submit, please send an anonymized abstract of 800-1000 words (excluding references) to pietro.vigiani at sns.it no later than June 30st. Notification of acceptance will be sent by the end of July.
Session times will be 45 min., divided into 30 min. for the presentation followed by 10 min. of discussion. Individuals belonging to underrepresented groups in the field of logic are strongly encouraged to submit their work.
A peer review process will select papers for publication in a volume of the Edizioni della Normale series.
