  Ternary logic - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A ternary, three-valued or trivalent logic is a multi-valued logic in which there are three truth values indicating true, false and some third value, often called possible, unknown, uncertain, neither true nor false (see fuzzy logic), or paraconsistent.
Balanced ternary uses -1 for false, 1 for true and 0 for the third value.
Ternary predicate logics exist as well; these may have readings of the quantifier different from classical (binary) predicate logic, and may include alternative quantifiers as well.

The arity of the predicate constant determines the arity of the predicates it may stand for.
"is a child of...and of..." (ternary predicate constant).
The truth value of an atomic formula thus depends on the domain (determining the interpretation of the predicate constant and the interpretation of the function constants in the argument terms) as well as on the variable assignment (determining the values of the variables).

Assume that kinship information is represented by means of a ternary "children" predicate, where the first argument is a mother, the second a father, and the third a list of their children.
(b) (30 points) Define a binary "daughter" predicate for the relation that one individual is a daughter of another, and a binary "sons" predicate for the relation between an individual and the list of all that individual's sons.
You may (but you needn't) use the "findall" predicate to do the testing (making sure that it is clear what part of the printout counts as a result of the given tests and what doesn't).

The purpose of our reply is to call the ternary analysis into question, arguing that the case for a SC is actually much stronger than CandR suggest.
The verb entertains a close relationship with the empty SC predicate, which is presumably incorporated into the verb.
This requires that it be a sister of the verb for both transitive and intransitive resultatives, as claimed by the Ternary Analysis, but not by the Binary SC or the Hybrid SC Analyses” (1992:184).

The number of roles in which the predicate is involved determines the arity.
An example of a ternary predicate is contained in the fact type “member is contacted at location during time”.
The various common types of predicate arities were discussed, and the use of Visio to construct an ORM source model was demonstrated.

Template predicates can be seen as a way to define intensional predicates by means of a subprogram, where the subprogram is generic and reusable as many times is necessary.
The arity of formal predicate p is 1 and the output arity of template definition is 1.
The intuitive meaning of this invocation is to define a predicate computing the student with maximum value of the ‘Age’ attribute (the third attribute of the student predicate), grouped by the ‘Sex’ attribute (the second one), ignoring the first attribute.

For example, given our ternary above, the first reading has to have Student in the first role position, the second reading has to have Grade in the first role position, and the last reading has to have Course in the first role position.
If you have a ternary (or higher arity) fact type and do not supply alternate readings that have the expected object type ordering, you will see an "invalid reading" message in the verbalizer window and in any VEA reports.
Most of the time, this limitation is not a problem but if it is, you can always supply the readings as you see fit; the Orthogonal Toolbox will render the readings as you intend in its XML extract functionality.

 Categories and Relations - Datamaster User's Manual   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
A primitive in the theory of categories is a predicate that asserts one of: two elements are equal, an element is the source of another element, an element is the target of another element, or an element is the composition of two other elements.
The primitives in the theory of regular categories are those of catesian categories and predicates that assert that a diagram is a cover or that a subobject is an image of a map.
The predicates of relations on regular categories are the defining predicates for morphisms of regular categories and the defining predicates for the operations of composition, reciprocation, and intersection for relations.

Exception operators are as old as formal default reasoning; McCarthy called his exception operator Ab, and its predecessor End can be found in your paper written back in the 1970s.
Lin's predicate Caused, on the other hand, is a new and original idea.
The counterpart of the formula (s,t]Xp and [t]p=F in the situation calculus is Ab(p,a,s) and Value(p,Result(a,s))=F, (1) where $Ab$ is the abnormality predicate from the commonsense law of inertia not Ab(p,a,s) -> Value(p,Result(a,s))=Value(p,s).

as the predicate :p acquires a special status and is not anymore on the same level as :s and :v.
A ternary predicate could be put this way: [:p :o1, :o2, :o3].
This works because the unit of unification in N3Engine is a tripleset and the two triples stay together within the tripleset.Take the unary predicates [:p :o1], [:p :o2] and [:p :o3].

 OE Handbook: Chapter 9. Mistakes to Avoid
We could use the ternary predicate #$bordersOnRegion to relate the two regions to their border, or we could use the binary predicate #$borderOf to relate the border to each region it borders.
The best way to avoid skipping the predicate is to think in terms of predicates, and that way you'll only create functions if their corresponding predicates are already defined.
The suggested way to fix the "Skipping the Predicate" malady does not require that there must be a 1-1 relationship between denotational functions and their underlying predicates.

The fact type is composed of object types and a predicate.
Another feature of the predicate is its arity; the number of roles the predicate is involved in determines the arity.
An example of a ternary predicate is contained in the fact type "member is contacted at location during time" this predicate involves three roles: "member", "location", and "time".

An agent is invoked via a binary predicate agent(EventQueue, ActionList) where EventQueue is a list of Triggers, and ActionList is a list of actions represented as atomic propositions.
The [deletebelief, Proposition] event is treated simply as a plan trigger, in the standard AgentSpeak sense and does not lead to changes in the agent belief base.

 Layering LX on RDF   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
RDF as a sublanguage of FOL has just conjunction, existential quantification, and a ternary predicate called "rdf".
This is similar to Drew McDermott's vocabulary for describing FOL sentences [2][3], except that I include a limitted truth predicate, allowing one to describe particular LX sentences as being true.
If LX is really a sublanguage of FOL, it has no truth predicate, and we just need two layers.
