摘要
In this paper we face the problem of representing default rules by means of a suitable coherent conditional probability, defined on a family of conditional events. An event is singled-out (in our approach) by a proposition, that is a statement that can be either true or false; a conditional event is consequently defined by means of two propositions and is a multi-valued entity related (in this context) to a conditional probability. We stress the simplicity of our approach (Occam's razor...!) with respect to other well-known methodologies.
