In this paper, researchers investigate how different methods of “forgetting” knowledge affect the overall strength of a theory. They propose new ways to measure changes in inferential strength using ideas from probability theory and model counting. The team also develops a practical tool for analyzing and determining the effectiveness of different forgetting strategies. While the focus is on forgetting, the results have broader implications for other areas of research.

Forgeting is an important technique used in knowledge representation that can be applied to many fields. This paper explores how different ways of forgetting affect the strength of a theory. The researchers use ideas from probability and model counting to measure these changes. They also create a tool called ProbLog to help analyze and compare different forgetting strategies.
