Abstract

In this paper we investigate the relationships between a multipreferential semantics for defeasible reasoning in knowledge representation and a multilayer neural network model. Weighted knowledge bases for a simple description logic with typicality are considered under a (many-valued) “concept-wise” multipreference semantics. The semantics is used to provide a preferential interpretation of MultiLayer Perceptrons (MLPs). A model checking and an entailment based approach are exploited in the verification of conditional properties of MLPs.
