Distance-based reasoning is a well-known approach for defining non-monotonic and paraconsistent formalisms, which so far has been mainly used in the context of standard two-valued semantics. In this paper, we extend this approach to
arbitrary denotational semantics
by considering
dissimilarities
, a generalization of distances. Dissimilarity-based reasoning is then applied for handling inconsistency in knowledge-based systems using various non-classical logics. This includes logics defined by multi-valued semantics, non-deterministic semantics, and possible-worlds (Kripke-style) semantics. In particular, we show that our approach allows to define a variety of inconsistency-tolerant entailment relations, and that it extends many well-studied forms of reasoning in the context of belief revision and database integration.
