ABSTRACT SOLAR is an efficient first-order consequence finding system based on a connection tableau format with Skip operation. Consequence finding 1,2,3,4 is a generalization of refutation finding or theorem proving, and is useful for many reasoning tasks such as knowledge compilation, inductive logic programming, abduction. One of the most significant calculus of consequence finding is SOL 2. SOL is complete for consequence finding and can find all minimal-length consequences with respect to subsumption. SOLAR (SOL for Advanced Reasoning) is an efficient implementation of SOL and can avoid producing non-minimal/redundant consequences due to various state of the art pruning methods, such as skip-regularity, local failure caching, folding-up (see 5,6).
