Context-Specific Independence in Bayesian Networks
Bayesiannetworks provide a languagefor qualitatively representing the conditional independence properties of a distribution. This allows a natural and compact representation of th...

Hierarchical explanation of inference in Bayesian networks that represent a population of independent agents
This paper describes a novel method for explaining Bayesian network (BN) inference when the network is modeling a population of conditionally independent agents, each of which is m...

Directional Decomposition of Multiattribute Utility Functions
Abstract. Several schemes have been proposed for compactly representing multiattribute utility functions, yet none seems to achieve the level of success achieved by Bayesian and Ma...

Probabilistic Semantics for the Carneades Argument Model Using Bayesian Networks
Abstract. This paper presents a technique with which instances of argument structures in the Carneades model can be given a probabilistic semantics by translating them into Bayesia...

Using Temporal Context-Specific Independence Information in the Exploratory Analysis of Disease Processes
Abstract. Disease processes in patients are temporal in nature and involve uncertainty. It is necessary to gain insight into these processes when aiming at improving the diagnosis,...
