Likelihoods and Parameter Priors for Bayesian Networks
We develop simple methods for constructing likelihoods and parameter priors for learning about the parameters and structure of a Bayesian network.
Parameter Priors for Directed Acyclic Graphical Models and the Characterization of Several Probability Distributions
We develop simple methods for constructing parameter priors for model choice among Directed Acyclic Graphical (DAG) models.
Dependence and Relevance: A probabilistic view
We examine three probabilistic concepts related to the sentence "two variables have no bearing on each other".
Random Algorithms for the Loop Cutset Problem
We show how to find a minimum loop cutset in a Bayesian network with high probability.
Proceedings of the Thirteenth Conference on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence (1997)
This is the Proceedings of the Thirteenth Conference on Uncertainty in Artificial Intelligence, which was held in Providence, RI, August 1-3, 1997
On the Logic of Causal Models
This paper explores the role of Directed Acyclic Graphs (DAGs) as a representation of conditional independence relationships.
d-Separation: From Theorems to Algorithms
The algorithm runs in time O (l E l) where E is the number of edges in the network.
Separable and transitive graphoids
We examine three probabilistic formulations of the sentence a and b are totally unrelated with respect to a given set of variables U.
Advances in Probabilistic Reasoning
This paper discuses multiple Bayesian networks representation paradigms for encoding asymmetric independence assertions.
Inference Algorithms for Similarity Networks
We examine two types of similarity networks each based on a distinct notion of relevance.
Learning Bayesian Networks: The Combination of Knowledge and Statistical Data
Second, we describe local search and annealing algorithms to be used in conjunction with scoring metrics.
Learning Gaussian Networks
We describe algorithms for learning Bayesian networks from a combination of user knowledge and statistical data.
Learning Bayesian Networks: A Unification for Discrete and Gaussian Domains
We examine Bayesian methods for learning Bayesian networks from a combination of prior knowledge and statistical data.
Asymptotic Model Selection for Directed Networks with Hidden Variables
We extend the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC), an asymptotic approximation for the marginal likelihood, to Bayesian networks with hidden variables.
Parameter Priors for Directed Acyclic Graphical Models and the Characterization of Several Probability Distributions
We show that the only parameter prior for complete Gaussian DAG models that satisfies global parameter independence, complete model equivalence, and some weak regularity assumptions, is the normal-Wishart distribution.
