Phenomenology as a criterion for formalism choice

Dmitri Iourinski

pp. 99-114

The aim of the current exposition is to provide a justification for choosing a superintuitionistic logic to represent the semantics of the Dempster-Shafer theory. The author adopts the applied point of view to the problem: the main research topic is within artificial intelligence. Thus, along with finding an adequate logical interpretation of the theory in question we also interested in finding the formalism that renders itself well to algorithms and uses data structures that are "computer-friendly". The actual formalism built upon the premises discussed in the current paper was presented in the second IEEE-SOFA workshop on soft computing applications and in Linz seminar in Fuzzy set theory [16, 17, 18].
