Abstract

This paper introduces Higher-Order Bayesian Networks,
a probabilistic reasoning formalism which combines the efficient
reasoning mechanisms of Bayesian Networks with the expressive
power of higher-order logics.
We discuss how the proposed graphical model is used in order to define
a probability distribution semantics over particular families of
higher-order terms.
We give an example of the application of our method on the Mutagenesis
domain, a popular dataset from the Inductive Logic Programming
community, showing how we employ probabilistic inference and model
learning for the construction of a probabilistic classifier based on
Higher-Order Bayesian Networks.
