This book aims at providing an overview of probabilistic logic programming with a special emphasis on languages under the distribution semantics, and presents the main ideas for semantics, inference, and learning and highlights connections between the methods.

Fabrizio Riguzzi is Associate Professor of Computer Science at the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science of the University of Ferrara. He was previously Assistant Professor at the same university. He got his Master and PhD in Computer Engineering from the University of Bologna. Fabrizio Riguzzi is vice-president of the Italian Association for Arti¿cial Intelligence and Editor in Chief of Intelligenza Arti¿ciale, the of¿cial journal of the Association. He is the author of more than 150 peer reviewed papers in the areas of Machine Learning, Inductive Logic Programming and Statistical Relational Learning. His aim is to develop intelligent systems by combining in novel ways techniques from arti¿cial intelligence, logic and statistics.
