Abstract

The principle of maximum entropy inductively completes the knowledge given by a knowledge base $\mathcal R$, and it has been suggested to view learning as an operation being inverse to inductive knowledge completion. While a corresponding learning approach has been developed when $\mathcal R$ is based on propositional logic, in this paper we describe an extension to a relational setting. It allows to learn relational FO-PCL knowledge bases containing both generic conditionals as well as specific conditionals referring to exceptional individuals from a given probability distribution.
