Sequential Update of Bayesian Network Structure
There is an obvious need for improving the performance and accuracy of a Bayesian network as new data is observed. Because of errors in model construction and changes in the dynam...

Exploring Parallelism in Learning Belief Networks
It has been shown that a class of probabilistic domain models cannot be learned correctly by several existing algorithms which employ a single-link lookahead search. When a multil...

Correlated Action Effects in Decision Theoretic Regression
Much recent research in decision theoretic planning has adopted Markov decision processes (MDPs) as the model of choice, and has attempted to make their solution more tractable by...
