Qualitative Reasoning

🤔 Commonsense physics simulation

Forbus, K. D. (1984) - "Qualitative process theory"

📦 Installation

pip install qualitative-reasoning

🚀 Quick Start

import qualitative_reasoning
import numpy as np

# Create qualitative reasoner
reasoner = qualitative_reasoning.QualitativeReasoner()

# Define qualitative variables
temperature = qualitative_reasoning.QualitativeQuantity(
    'temperature', 
    ['cold', 'warm', 'hot']
)

pressure = qualitative_reasoning.QualitativeQuantity(
    'pressure',
    ['low', 'medium', 'high']
)

# Create qualitative state
state = qualitative_reasoning.QualitativeState({
    'temperature': 'warm',
    'pressure': 'medium'
})

# Perform envisionment
env = qualitative_reasoning.QualitativeEnvisionment(reasoner)
transitions = env.generate_transitions(state)

print(f"✅ Possible transitions: {len(transitions)}")
for transition in transitions:
    print(f"   → {transition}")
