Abstract(in English) This paper presents the explanation-based closed-world assumption (EBCWA) as a method of formalizing human common-sense reasoning.This assumption is based on a notion that any statement with no explanation from hypotheses should be negated,and is an extension of the conventional closed-world assumption.From the viewpoint of model theory,we clarify the relation between EBCWA and other typical methods of common-sense reasoning,that is circumscription and default reasoning.We also propose an algorithm for answering whether or not a formula holds in EBCWA.
