Probabilistic logic learning

Abstract

The past few years have witnessed an 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 paper 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.
