Topological parameters for time-space tradeoff
In this paper we propose a family of algorithms combining treeclustering with conditioning that trade space for time. Such algorithms are useful for reasoning in probabilistic and...

Bucket elimination: A unifying framework for probabilistic inference
Probabilistic inference algorithms for belief updating, nding the most probable explanation, the maximum a posteriori hypothesis, and the maximum expected utility are reformulated...

Some Experiments with Real-time Decision Algorithms
Real-time Decision algorithms are a class of incremental resource-bounded [Horvitz, 89] or anytime [Dean, 93] algorithms for evaluating influence diagrams. We present a test domai...

Efficient Approximations for the Marginal Likelihood of Incomplete Data Given a Bayesian Network
We discuss Bayesian methods for learning Bayesian networks when data sets are incomplete. In particular, we examine asymptotic approximations for the marginal likelihood of incomp...

Learning Equivalence Classes of Bayesian Network Structures
Two Bayesian-network structures are said to be equivalent if the set of distributions that can be represented with one of those structures is identical to the set of distributions...

Context-Specific Independence in Bayesian Networks
Bayesiannetworks provide a languagefor qualitatively representing the conditional independence properties of a distribution. This allows a natural and compact representation of th...

Belief Induced by the Partial Knowledge of the Probabilities
: We construct the belief function that quantifies the agent' beliefs about which event of will occurred when he knows that the event is selected by a chance set-up and that ...
