In this paper we show how recently observed facts and plausible explanations for them can be accommodated or not in the mental state of an agent. This depends on whether the epistemic surprise degree associated with them is below or above a surprise limit that the agent is willing to accept. This limit is related to the credulity or skepticism degree the agent exhibits. The proposed approach also is sensitive to context known by the agent (its mental state), so that it allows for a given agent to refuse (or accept) a new evidence in a specific context, while it accepts (or refuses) the same belief in a different context. This approach is completely innovative as agents become more exible in their interaction with the external world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
