ABSTRACT
We contrast Bonanno's ‘Belief Revision in a Temporal Framework’ (Bonanno, 2008) with preference change and belief revision from the perspective of dynamic epistemic logic (DEL). For that, we extend the logic of communication and change of van Benthem et al. (2006b) with relational substitutions (van Benthem, 2004) for preference change, and show that this does not alter its properties. Next we move to a more constrained context where belief and knowledge can be defined from preferences (Grove, 1988; Board, 2002; Baltag and Smets, 2006, 2008b), prove completeness of a very expressive logic of belief revision, and define a mechanism for updating belief revision models using a combination of action priority update (Baltag and Smets, 2008b) and preference substitution (van Benthem, 2004).
