Traditionally, they are finite probability spaces over database instances. Such finite PDBs inherently make a closed-world assumption: non-occurring facts are assumed to be impossible, rather than just unlikely. As convincingly argued by Ceylan et al. (KR '16), this results in implausibilities and clashes with intuition. An open-world assumption, where facts not explicitly listed may have a small positive probability can yield more reasonable results.
