Although probabilistic knowledge representations and probabilistic reasoning have by now secured their position in intelligent systems research, it is not uncommon to encounter misunderstanding of their foundations and lack of appreciation for their strengths. This paper discusses ve issues related to intelligent systems research and shows how they are addressed by the probabilistic knowledge r...

This paper is dedicated to our friend Marek, for his birthday. Two of us know Marek since more than 20 years, when we embarked in the adventure of Mathematics for Finance. Our paths diverged, but we always kept strong ties. Thank you, Marek, for all the fruitful discussions we have had. We hope you will find some interest in this paper and the modeling of credit risk we present, and we are look...
