Preface
This book aims to provide an introduction that can help newcomers to the field to get started, to understand the state-of-the-art and the current challenges and be ready for future advances. It reviews the foundations of StarAI, motivates the issues, justifies some choices that have been made, and provides some open problems. Laying bare the foundations will hopefully inspire others to join us in exploring the frontiers and the yet unexplored areas.
The target audience for this book consists of advanced undergraduate and graduate students and also researchers and practitioners who want to get an overview of the basics and the state-of-the-art in StarAI. To this aim, Part I starts with providing the necessary background in probability and logic. We then discuss the representations of relational probability models and the underlying issues. Afterward, we focus first on inference, in Part II, and then on learning, in Part III. Finally, we touch upon relational tasks that go beyond the basic probabilistic inference and learning tasks as well as some open issues.
Researchers who are already working on StarAI—we apologize to anyone whose work we are accidentally not citing—may enjoy reading about parts of StarAI they are less familiar with.
We are grateful to all the people who contributed to the development of statistical relational learning and statistical relational AI. This book is made possible by you.
We also thank the reviewers for their valuable feedback and our co-authors, who accompanied us on our StarAI adventures, such as Laura Antanas, Udi Apsel, Babak Ahmadi, Hendrik Blockeel, Wolfram Burgard, Maurice Bruynooghe, David Buchman, Hung H.

CHAPTER 1
Motivation
There are good arguments that an intelligent agent that makes decisions about how to act in a complex world needs to model its uncertainty; it cannot just act pretending that it knows what is true. An agent also needs to reason about individuals (objects, entities, things) and about relations among the individuals.
These aspects have often been studied separately, with models for uncertainty often defined in terms of features and random variables, ignoring relational structure, and with rich (logical) languages for reasoning about relations that ignore uncertainty. This book studies the integration of the approaches to reasoning about uncertainty and reasoning about individuals and relations.
1.1 UNCERTAINTY IN COMPLEX WORLDS
Over the last 30 years, Artificial Intelligence (AI) has evolved from being skeptical, even hostile, to the use of probability to embracing probability. Initially, many
