A Bayesian approach to modeling lost person behaviors based on terrain features in Wilderness Search and Rescue
: In Wilderness Search and Rescue (WiSAR), the incident commander (IC) creates a probability distribution map of the likely location of the missing person. This map is important be...

Approximating passage time distributions in queueing models by Bayesian expansion
We introduce Bayesian Expansion (BE), an approximate numerical technique for passage time distribution analysis in queueing networks. BE uses a class of Bayesian networks to appro...

A Primer on the Evolution of Equivalence Classes of Bayesian-Network Structures
Bayesian networks (BN) constitute a useful tool to model the joint distribution of a set of random variables of interest. To deal with the problem of learning sensible BN models fr...

Bayesian model search for mixture models based on optimizing variational bounds
When learning a mixture model, we suffer from the local optima and model structure determination problems. In this paper, we present a method for simultaneously solving these prob...

Knowledge Engineering for Bayesian Networks: How Common Are Noisy-MAX Distributions in Practice?
One problem faced in knowledge engineering for Bayesian networks is the exponential growth of the number of parameters in their conditional probability tables (CPTs). The most comm...
