Approximation Algorithms for the Loop Cutset Problem
We show how to nd a minimum weight loop cutset in a Bayesian network with high probability. Finding such a loop cutset is the rst step in the method of conditioning for inference....

On reasoning in networks with qualitative uncertainty
In this paper some initialwork towards a new approach to qualitative reasoning under uncertainty is presented. This method is not only applicable to qualitative probabilistic reas...

A New Look at Causal Independence
Heckerman (1993) defined causal independence in terms of a set of temporal conditional independence statements. These statements formalized certain types of causal interaction whe...

Global Conditioning for Probabilistic Inference in Belief Networks
In this paper we propose a new approach to probabilistic inference on belief networks, global conditioning, which is a simple generalization of Pearl's (1986b) method of loop...
