In this paper, we investigate the semantic meaning of the messages passed in the Hugin architecture for probabilistic inference. By utilizing this information, one can avoid passi...
Diagnosing multiple faults for a complex system is often very difficult. It requires not only a model which adequately represents the diagnostic aspect of a complex system, but al...
