There Is a Reason for Everything (Probably): On the Application of Maxent to Induction

Jeff B. Paris; Alena Vencovská

In this paper we show how the maxent paradigm may be used to produce an inductive method (in the sense of Carnap) applicable to a wide class of problems in inductive logic. A surprising consequence of this method is that the answers it gives are consistent with, or explicable by, the existence of underlying reasons for the given knowledge base, even when no such reasons are explicitly present. We would conjecture that the same result holds for the full class of problems of this type.

Completing Incomplete Bayesian Networks

Manfred Schramm; Bertram Fronhöfer

For reasoning with uncertain knowledge the use of probability theory has been broadly investigated. Two main approaches have been developed: Bayesian Networks and MaxEnt Completion. In this paper we investigate ways to combine these two approaches: We consider two kinds of incomplete Bayesian Networks — thus coping with incomplete (uncertain) knowledge — and study the usefulness of some variations of the MaxEnt Completion for processing or completing them.

This analysis detected limits of the use of so-called update method .
