Selected JACM Article from 2022
Our paper Generative Datalog with Continuous Distributions (joint work with Martin Grohe, Joost-Pieter Katoen, and Peter Lindner) was featured as one of eight selected articles published in 2022 in the Journal of the ACM. It describes a new way to give semantics to Datalog, a declarative probabilistic programming language used in the context of probabilistic…
