Abstract

Previous methods for generating random modal formulae (for the multi-modal logic K (m) ) result either in flawed test sets or formulae that are too hard for current modal decision procedures and, also, unnatural. We present here a new system and generation methodology which results in unflawed test sets and more-natural formulae that are better suited for current decision procedures.
