A DSL for Explaining Probabilistic Reasoning
We propose a new focus in language design where languages provide constructs that not only describe the computation of results, but also produce explanations of how and why those r...

The Dempster-Shafer calculus for statisticians
The Dempster-Shafer (DS) theory of probabilistic reasoning is presented in terms of a semantics whereby every meaningful formal assertion is associated with a triple (p, q, r) whe...

Pivotal Pruning of Trade-offs in QPNs
Qualitative probabilistic networks have been designed for probabilistic reasoning in a qualitative way. Due to their coarse level of representation detail, qualitative probabilist...

Zooming in on Trade-Offs in Qualitative Probabilistic Networks
Qualitative probabilistic networks have been designed for probabilistic reasoning in a qualitative way. As a consequence of their coarse level of representation detail, qualitativ...

Sampling Combinatorial Spaces Using Biased Random Walks
For probabilistic reasoning, one often needs to sample from a combinatorial space. For example, one may need to sample uniformly from the space of all satisfying assignments. Can ...

Using the Probabilistic Logic Programming Language P-log for Causal and Counterfactual Reasoning and Non-Naive Conditioning
P-log is a probabilistic logic programming language, which combines both logic programming style knowledge representation and probabilistic reasoning. In earlier papers various ad...
