Ignorability in Statistical and Probabilistic Inference
When dealing with incomplete data in statistical learning, or incomplete observations in probabilistic inference, one needs to distinguish the fact that a certain event is observed from the fact that the observed event has happened. Since the modeling and computational complexities entailed by maintaining this proper distinction are often prohibitive, one asks for conditions under which it can ...
متن کاملSelective ignorability assumptions in causal inference.
Most attempts at causal inference in observational studies are based on assumptions that treatment assignment is ignorable. Such assumptions are usually made casually, largely because they justify the use of available statistical methods and not because they are truly believed. It will often be the case that it is plausible that conditional independence holds at least approximately for a subset...

متن کاملStatistical Inference for Probabilistic Constraint Logic Programming
Most approaches to probabilistic logic programming deal with deduction systems and xpoint semantics for programming systems with user-speci ed weights attached to the formulae of the language, i.e, the aim is to connect logical inference and probabilistic inference. However, such a user-speci c determination of weights is not reusable and often complex. In various applications, automatic method...
