A Software System for the Computation, Visualization, and Comparison of Conditional Structures for Relational Probabilistic Knowledge Bases

چکیده
Combining logic with probabilities is a core idea to uncertain reasoning. Recently, approaches to probabilistic conditional logics based on first-order languages have been proposed that employ the principle of maximum entropy (ME), e.g. the logic FO-PCL. In order to simplify the ME model computation, FO-PCL knowledge bases can be transformed so that they become parametrically uniform. On the other hand, conditional structures have been proposed as a structural tool for investigating properties of conditional knowledge bases. In this paper, we present a software system for the computation, visualization, and comparison of conditional structures for relational probabilistic knowledge bases as they evolve in the transformation process that achieves parametric uniformity.

Generation of Parametrically Uniform Knowledge Bases in a Relational Probabilistic Logic with Maximum Entropy Semantics
In a relational setting, the maximum entropy model of a set of probabilistic conditionals can be defined referring to the full set of ground instances of the conditionals. The logic FO-PCL uses the notion of parametric uniformity to ensure that the full grounding of the conditionals can be avoided, thereby greatly simplifying the maximum entropy model computation. In this paper, we describe a s...

Flow visualization techniques using tracer markers such as die, smoke, hydrogen bubbles, etc., have been widely used in experimental investigations of large scale structures of a variety of flow fields. They have played an important role in understanding the physics of the coherent structures' formation and evolution in the transitional as well as the turbulent regions of the flow fields. Howev...
متن کاملImplementation of a Transformation System for Relational Probabilistic Knowledge Bases Simplifying the Maximum Entropy Model Computation
The maximum entropy (ME) model of a knowledge base R consisting of relational probabilistic conditionals can be defined referring to the set of all ground instances of the conditionals. The logic FO-PCL employs the notion of parametric uniformity for avoiding the full grounding of R. We present an implementation of a rule system transforming R into a knowledge base that is parametrically unifor...
متن کاملRelational Probabilistic Conditional Reasoning at Maximum Entropy
This paper presents and compares approaches for reasoning with relational probabilistic conditionals, i. e. probabilistic conditionals in a restricted first-order environment. It is well-known that conditionals play a crucial role for default reasoning, however, most formalisms are based on propositional conditionals, which restricts their expressivity. The formalisms discussed in this paper ar...
