Call for Papers
===============

Special Issue of
Journal of Applied Logics (IfCoLog Journal of Logics and their Applications)
<https://www.collegepublications.co.uk/ifcolog>
on "Formal and Cognitive Reasonig"
Submission Deadline: February 28, 2022


We invite authors to submit papers for a Special Issue on "Formal and Cognitive Reasonig" to be published in the Journal of Applied Logics (IfCoLog Journal of Logics and Their Applications, College Publications). In September 2021, the 7th Workshop on Formal and Cognitive Reasoning (FCR-2021, <https://www.fernuni-hagen.de/wbs/fcr2021.html>) took place. In the special issue, original contributions on the basis of the best contributions presented at the workshop will be published, and we also welcome contributions from other authors.


Aims and Scope
--------------
Information for real life AI applications is usually pervaded by uncertainty and subject to change, and thus demands for non-classical reasoning approaches. At the same time, psychological findings indicate that human reasoning cannot be completely described by classical logical systems. Sources of explanations are incomplete knowledge, incorrect beliefs, or inconsistencies. A wide range of reasoning mechanism has to be considered, such as analogical or defeasible reasoning, possibly in combination with machine learning methods. The field of knowledge representation and reasoning offers a rich palette of methods for uncertain reasoning both to describe human reasoning and to model AI approaches.

Submission Guidelines
----------------------
The Journal of Applied Logics is a peer-reviewed journal, and each submitted paper will be subject to the usual review procedure for the JAL journal which will be organized by the guest editors of the special issue. Submissions should be prepared using the IfColog LaTeX style (available at <https://www.fernuni-hagen.de/wbs/data/IFCoLogClass.zip>) and should be send to the guest editors by email. The deadline for the submission of contributions is February 28, 2022.
