Abstract (arXiv)

This paper develops a refined version of TAPO-description logic for the analysis of information behavior. The framework is treated not as a single homogeneous object logic, but as a layered formalism consisting of a static descriptive layer (TBox/ABox), a procedural layer (PBox), and an oracle-sensitive layer (OBox). To make this architecture mathematically explicit, we introduce a metalevel guard-judgment layer governing procedural branching and iteration. On this basis we formulate a core inference system for TAPO-description logic, covering static TBox/ABox reasoning, guarded procedural transition in the PBox, and validated external import in the OBox. We then give a categorical semantics for the resulting framework and indicate its sheaf-theoretic refinement. The theory is illustrated by examples of information-seeking behavior, including simple search behavior and review-sensitive ordering behavior in a curry restaurant. The aim is to treat not only static knowledge representation but also hesitation, external consultation, and action-guiding update within a unified logical setting.
