Abstract
The goal of the project is to develop a powerful formalism for rule-based probabilistic programming, to study its meta-properties, to implement it, and to carry out some practical experiments.
We aim at introducing probabilistic strategies in ฯLog calculus and to study semantics of such formalism. We also propose an extension of ฯLog which will be capable to process probabilistic data. One of the main sub-goals of the project is to study strong normalization property of probabilistic ฯLog calculus. The obtained probabilistic calculus will be implemented as a prototype programming tool on top of PฯLog, and some of its possible application areas will be explored.
