Abstract

Distribution-aware answer set sampling has a wide range of potential applications, for example in the area of probabilistic logic programming or for the computation of approximate solutions of combinatorial or search problems under uncertainty. This paper introduces algorithms for the sampling of answer sets under given probabilistic constraints. Our approaches allow for the specification of probability distributions over stable models using probabilistically weighted facts and rules as constraints for an approximate sampling task with specifiable accuracy. At this, we do not impose any independence requirements on random variables. An experimental evaluation investigates the performance characteristics of the presented algorithms.
