Abstract: The paper presents a new modality extending Answer Set Programming in order to refine its capability of representing knowledge in case of possible perception failure. The aim of the proposal is mainly to present a new logical approach to deal with uncertainty arising from perception bugs, and to show its effectiveness in the context of agent reasoning representation.

Keywords: Knowledge representation, answer set programming, non-monotonic reasoning
