Method Detail

culpabilityMeasure

java.lang.Double culpabilityMeasure(T beliefSet,
                                    S conditional)

Returns the degree of responsibility of the given formula to cause inconsistency in the given belief set (NOTE: the formula should be in the given belief set).

Parameters:

beliefSet - a belief set.

formula - a formula

Returns:

a Double indicating the degree of inconsistency (NOTE: if the given formula does not appear in the given belief set the degree is defined to be zero).
