Abstract

Tweety is a collection of Java libraries that provides a general interface layer for doing research in and working with different knowledge representation formalisms such as classical logics, conditional logics, probabilistic logics, and computational argumentation. It is designed in such a way that tasks like representing and reasoning with knowledge bases inside the programming environment are realizable in a common manner. Furthermore, Tweety contains libraries for dealing with agents, multi-agent systems, and dialog systems for agents, as well as belief revision, preference reasoning, preference aggregation, and action languages. A series of utility libraries that deal with e. g. mathematical optimization complement the collection.
