Learning Bayesian network parameters under order constraints
We consider the problem of learning the parameters of a Bayesian network from data, while taking into account prior knowledge about the signs of influences between variables. Such...

Bayesian Network Learning with Parameter Constraints
The task of learning models for many real-world problems requires incorporating domain knowledge into learning algorithms, to enable accurate learning from a realistic volume of t...

Competitive generative models with structure learning for NLP classification tasks
In this paper we show that generative models are competitive with and sometimes superior to discriminative models, when both kinds of models are allowed to learn structures that a...

Obtaining The Correspondence between Bayesian and Neural Networks
We present in this paper a novel method for eliciting the conditional probability matrices needed for a Bayesian network with the help of a neural network. We demonstrate how we c...

Learning Bayesian network classifiers by maximizing conditional likelihood
Bayesian networks are a powerful probabilistic representation, and their use for classification has received considerable attention. However, they tend to perform poorly when lear...
