These then feed into an account of
belief revision, that is, the revision of material incompatibilities in belief sets.

One area that comes to mind is some type of probabilistic
belief revision.
In the process that R updates its own mental attitudes with input variables, the problem of
belief revision is involved.
Topics discussed include representing case variations for learning general and specific adaptation rules, a theorem prover with dependent types of reasoning about actions, probabilistic association rules for item-based recommender systems, semantics for containment
belief revision in the case of consistent complete theories, integrating individual and social intelligence into module-based agents without a central coordinator, improving batch reinforcement learning performance through transfer of samples, managing risk in recurrent auctions for robust resource allocation, and domain-dependent view of multiple robots path planning.
The original
belief revision model (Catena et al., 1998) explaining this effect, proposed an anchoring and adjustment algorithm based upon the action of two serial mechanisms during the process of learning the causal relationships between a single causal cue and an effect (see also Appendix).
Before believe changes the belief status of a proposition p, it performs a limited form of
belief revision (Alchourron, Gardenfors, and Makinson 1985).
(6) Terms like "knowledge revision," "theory change," "theory revision," and "
belief revision" are used as synonyms in literature.
These findings add new-evidence to the growing body of data showing that human causal learning depends on the action of several mechanisms, as proposed by the
Belief Revision Model.
