- Abstract
- Research over the past several decades in learning logical and
probabilistic models has greatly increased the range of phenomena that machine
learning can address. Recent work has extended these boundaries even further
by unifying these two powerful learning frameworks. However, new frontiers
await. Current techniques are capable of learning only a subset of the
knowledge needed by practitioners in important domains, and further
unification of probabilistic and logical learning offers a unique ability to
produce the full range of knowledge needed in a wide range of applications.
