Deciding Consistency of Databases Containing Defeasible and Strict Information
Moises Goldszmidt, Judea Pearl
We propose a norm of consistency for a mixed set of defeasible and strict sentences, based on a probabilistic semantics. This norm establishes a clear distinction between knowledge…
Reasoning With Qualitative Probabilities Can Be Tractable
Moises Goldszmidt, Judea Pearl
We recently described a formalism for reasoning with if-then rules that re expressed with different levels of firmness [18]. The formalism interprets these rules as extreme conditi…
On the Relation between Kappa Calculus and Probabilistic Reasoning
Adnan Darwiche, Moises Goldszmidt
We study the connection between kappa calculus and probabilistic reasoning in diagnosis applications. Specifically, we abstract a probabilistic belief network for diagnosing faults…
Action Networks: A Framework for Reasoning about Actions and Change under Uncertainty
Adnan Darwiche, Moises Goldszmidt
This work proposes action networks as a semantically well-founded framework for reasoning about actions and change under uncertainty. Action networks add two primitives to probabil…
Fast Belief Update Using Order-of-Magnitude Probabilities
Moises Goldszmidt
We present an algorithm, called Predict, for updating beliefs in causal networks quantified with order-of-magnitude probabilities. The algorithm takes advantage of both the structu…
Learning Bayesian Networks with Local Structure
Nir Friedman, Moises Goldszmidt
In this paper we examine a novel addition to the known methods for learning Bayesian networks from data that improves the quality of the learned networks. Our approach explicitly r…
