Abstract
The role of instantiation restrictions for two recently proposed semantics for relational probabilistic conditionals employing the maximum entropy principle is discussed. Aggregating semantics is extended to conditionals with instantiation restrictions. The extended framework properly captures both grounding and aggregating semantics and helps to clarify the relationship between them.
The research reported here was partially supported by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (grant BE 1700/7-2).
