"Probabilistic Logic Learning" - Tutorial


Abstract

The past few years have witnessed a significant interest in probabilistic logic learning, i.e. in research lying at the intersection of probabilistic reasoning, logical representations, and machine learning. A rich variety of different formalisms and learning techniques have been developed. This tutorial provides an introductory survey and overview of the state-of-the-art in probabilistic logic learning through the identification of a number of important probabilistic, logical and learning concepts.

Keywords
