PLP 2024: The 12th Workshop on Probabilistic Logic Programming
Dallas, Texas, October 12-13, 2024 (exact date TBA)
Collocated with ICLP 2024.
Website: https://stoics.org.uk/~plp2024/
About the Workshop
The workshop encompasses all aspects of combining logic, algorithms, programming, and probability.
Probabilistic logic programming (PLP) approaches have received much attention in this century. They address the need to reason about relational domains under uncertainty arising in a variety of application domains, such as bioinformatics, the semantic web, robotics, and many more. PLP is part of a wider current interest in probabilistic programming. Due to logic programming's strong theoretical underpinnings, PLP is one of the more disciplined areas of probabilistic programming. It builds upon and benefits from the large body of existing work in logic programming, both in semantics and implementation, but also presents new challenges to the field. While PLP has already contributed many formalisms, systems, and well-understood and established results, such as parameter estimation, tabling, marginal probabilities, and Bayesian learning, many questions remain open in this exciting, expanding field at the intersection of AI, machine learning, and statistics. As is traditional in this series, the workshop would be designed to foster exchange between the various communities relevant to probabilistic logic programming, including probabilistic programming and statistical relational artificial intelligence.
Scope
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:
- Probabilistic (Logic) Programming Formalisms and languages
- Reasoning with Uncertainty
- Probabilistic Knowledge Representation and Reasoning
- Neuro-symbolic Representation and Reasoning
- Statistical Inference
- PLP Applications
This list is by no means exhaustive.

Submission Guidelines
We invite three types of submissions:
- Novel results (6 - 15 pages)
- Work in progress and Technical Summaries (2 - 5 pages)
- Recently accepted papers (in the original format and length)
Papers (except recently published papers that should be submitted in their original format), should follow the CEUR template available at:

At least one author of each accepted paper will be required to attend the workshop to present the contribution (we are thinking about the possibility of allowing remote participation).
