All Implemented Interfaces:

net.sf.tweety.commons.BeliefBaseMachineShop

public class SmoothedPenalizingCreepingMachineShop
extends AbstractCreepingMachineShop

This class is capable of restoring consistency of a possible inconsistent probabilistic conditional belief set. Restoring consistency is performed by a smoothed penalizing creeping of the original belief set towards an uniform belief set, see [PhD thesis, Thimm] for details.
