Learning Bayesian Networks with Local Structure
In this paper we examine a novel addition to the known methods for learning Bayesian networks from data that improves the quality of the learned networks. Our approach explicitly ...

Using Causal Information and Local Measures to Learn Bayesian Networks
In previous work we developed a method of learning Bayesian Network models from raw data. This method relies on the well known minimal description length (MDL) principle. The MDL ...

Decomposing Local Probability Distributions in Bayesian Networks for Improved Inference and Parameter Learning
A major difficulty in building Bayesian network models is the size of conditional probability tables, which grow exponentially in the number of parents. One way of dealing with th...

Bayesian Landmark Learning for Mobile Robot Localization
To operate successfully in indoor environments, mobile robots must be able to localize themselves. Most current localization algorithms lack flexibility, autonomy, and often optim...

Learning Hybrid Bayesian Networks by MML
Abstract. We use a Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) MML algorithm to learn hybrid Bayesian networks from observational data. Hybrid networks represent local structure, using conditi...
