Modal Logics for Qualitative Possibility and Beliefs
Craig Boutilier
Possibilistic logic has been proposed as a numerical formalism for reasoning with uncertainty. There has been interest in developing qualitative accounts of possibility, as well as…
The Probability of a Possibility: Adding Uncertainty to Default Rules
Craig Boutilier
We present a semantics for adding uncertainty to conditional logics for default reasoning and belief revision. We are able to treat conditional sentences as statements of condition…
Integrating Planning and Execution in Stochastic Domains
Richard Dearden, Craig Boutilier
We investigate planning in time-critical domains represented as Markov Decision Processes, showing that search based techniques can be a very powerful method for finding close to o…
Context-Specific Independence in Bayesian Networks
Craig Boutilier, Nir Friedman, Moises Goldszmidt +1
Bayesian networks provide a language for qualitatively representing the conditional independence properties of a distribution. This allows a natural and compact representation of t…
Learning Conventions in Multiagent Stochastic Domains using Likelihood Estimates
Craig Boutilier
Fully cooperative multiagent systems - those in which agents share a joint utility model- is of special interest in AI. A key problem is that of ensuring that the actions of indivi…
Structured Arc Reversal and Simulation of Dynamic Probabilistic Networks
Adrian Y. W. Cheuk, Craig Boutilier
We present an algorithm for arc reversal in Bayesian networks with tree-structured conditional probability tables, and consider some of its advantages, especially for the simulatio…
