Structural Learning in Object Oriented Domains
When constructing a Bayesian network, it can be advantageous to employ structural learning algorithms to combine knowledge captured in databases with prior information provided by...

Explaining Away in Weight Space
Explaining away has mostly been considered in terms of inference of states in belief networks. We show how it can also arise in a Bayesian context in inference about the weights g...

Context-specific approximation in probabilistic inference
There is evidence that the numbers in probabilistic inference don't really matter. This paper considers the idea that we can make a probabilistic model simpler by making fewe...

Join Tree Propagation Utilizing Both Arc Reversal and Variable Elimination
In this paper, we put forth the first join tree propagation algorithm that selectively applies either arc reversal (AR) or variable elimination (VE) to build the propagated messag...

Automatic Feature Selection for Model-Based Reinforcement Learning in Factored MDPs
Abstract--Feature selection is an important challenge in machine learning. Unfortunately, most methods for automating feature selection are designed for supervised learning tasks a...
