How to compute marginals efficiently is one of major concerned problems in probabilistic reasoning systems. Traditional graphical models do not preserve all conditional independen...
Probabilistic decision graphs (PDGs) are a representation language for probability distributions based on binary decision diagrams. PDGs can encode (context-specific) independence...
Abstract. Programmers employing inference in Bayesian networks typically rely on the inclusion of the model as well as an inference engine into their application. Sophisticated inf...
Graphs provide an excellent framework for interrogating symmetric models of measurement random variables and discovering their implied conditional independence structure. However,...
Bayesian belief networks have grown to prominence because they provide compact representations of many domains, and there are algorithms to exploit this compactness. The next step...
