Structural-EM for learning PDG models from incomplete data
Probabilistic Decision Graphs (PDGs) are a class of graphical models that can naturally encode some context specific independencies that cannot always be efficiently captured by...

Large-Sample Learning of Bayesian Networks is NP-Hard
In this paper, we provide new complexity results for algorithms that learn discrete-variable Bayesian networks from data. Our results apply whenever the learning algorithm uses a ...

Learning Ground CP-Logic Theories by Leveraging Bayesian Network Learning Techniques
Causal relations are present in many application domains. Causal Probabilistic Logic (CP-logic) is a probabilistic modeling language that is especially designed to express such rel...

iBOA: the incremental bayesian optimization algorithm
This paper proposes the incremental Bayesian optimization algorithm (iBOA), which modifies standard BOA by removing the population of solutions and using incremental updates of t...

Robust Independence Testing for Constraint-Based Learning of Causal Structure
This paper considers a method that combines ideas from Bayesian learning, Bayesian network inference, and classical hypothesis testing to produce a more reliable and robust test o...
