Implementing causal, versus strictly correlative, inference can lead to a deeper understanding of many complex problems. Probabilistic Logic Networks (PLN), with their robust mathematical foundations for handling uncertain and incomplete knowledge—such as induction, abduction, analogy, and reasoning about time—offer a strong framework for this task. This project has two main goals:

  1. To guide PLN inference control using causal networks.
  2. To explore how PLN rules can distinguish causal from correlational relationships.

Proposals can address either of these goals separately or explore both together and the feedback between them. Submissions should include testable examples to validate the approach and demonstrate how causal reasoning improves PLN’s overall performance.

    Lacking description

    This proposal is way too short and hence also does not address the RFP properly as relevant details are missing.

    Completely out of scope! No PLN, no semantic inference, nothing!

    Not recommend! Completely out of scope. The researcher wants to enhance "NLP" inference by incorporating causal learning techniques. Maybe he missed the main point that "PLN" and "NLP" are different things :). Proposal does not provide any information about PLN, PLN integration, causal models, inference types, nothing!
