Probabilistic Logic with Conditional Independence Formulae
We investigate probabilistic propositional logic as a way of expressing and reasoning about uncertainty. In contrast to Bayesian networks, a logical approach can easily cope with i...

"I Can Name that Bayesian Network in Two Matrixes!"
The traditional approach to building Bayesian networks is to build the graphical structure using a graphical editor and then add probabilities using a separate spreadsheet for eac...

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 ...

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...

A Bayesian Approach to Learning Bayesian Networks with Local Structure
Recently several researchers have investigated techniques for using data to learn Bayesian networks containing compact representations for the conditional probability distribution...

Update Rules for Parameter Estimation in Bayesian Networks
This paper re-examines the problem of parameter estimation in Bayesian networks with missing values and hidden variables from the perspective of recent work in on-line learning [1...

Exploiting Qualitative Knowledge in the Learning of Conditional Probabilities of Bayesian Networks
Algorithms for learning the conditional probabilities of Bayesian networks with hidden variables typically operate within a high-dimensional search space and yield only locally op...

Active Learning for Parameter Estimation in Bayesian Networks
Bayesian networks are graphical representations of probability distributions. In virtually all of the work on learning these networks, the assumption is that we are presented with...

The Bayesian Structural EM Algorithm
In recent years there has been a flurry of works on learning Bayesian networks from data. One of the hard problems in this area is how to effectively learn the structure of a beli...
