Integrating Probabilistic and Causal Reasoning

Abstract

We examine the vexed question of connections between logical and probabilistic reasoning. The reason for making such a connection are examined. We give an account of recent work which uses loglinear models to make the connection. We conclude with an analysis of various existing approaches combining logic and probability.
