Method Detail

getModels

public java.util.List<AnswerSet> getModels(Program p)

Description copied from interface: ModelProvider

Returns a characterizing model of the given belief base

Specified by:

getModels in interface ModelProvider<ASPRule,Program,AnswerSet>

Specified by:

getModels in class ASPSolver

Parameters:

p - some belief base

Returns:

the (selected) models of the belief base

getModels

public java.util.List<AnswerSet> getModels(java.lang.String p)

Description copied from class: ASPSolver

Returns a characterizing model (answer set) of the given belief base.

Specified by:

getModels in class ASPSolver

Parameters:

p - containing belief base

Returns:

AnswerSet

getModels

public java.util.List<AnswerSet> getModels(java.io.File file)

Description copied from class: ASPSolver

Returns a characterizing model (answer set) of the given belief base.

Specified by:

getModels in class ASPSolver

Parameters:

file - containing belief base

query in interface QualitativeReasoner<Program,ASPLiteral>

Specified by:

query in interface Reasoner<java.lang.Boolean,Program,ASPLiteral>

Specified by:

query in class ASPSolver

Parameters:

beliefbase - a belief base

formula - a formula

Returns:

the answer to the query
