Bayesian Network Inference Using Marginal Trees
Variable Elimination (VE) answers a query posed to a Bayesian network (BN) by manipulating the conditional probability tables of the BN. Each successive query is answered in the same manner. In this paper, we present an inference algorithm that is aimed at maximizing the reuse of past computation but does not involve precomputation. Compared to VE and a variant of VE incorporating precomputatio...
متن کاملApproximate inference in Bayesian networks using binary probability trees
The present paper introduces a new kind of representation for the potentials in a Bayesian network: binary probability trees. They enable the representation of context-specific independences in more detail than probability trees. This enhanced capability leads to more efficient inference algorithms for some types of Bayesian networks. This paper explains the procedure for building a binary prob...
متن کاملMRBAYES: Bayesian inference of phylogenetic trees
SUMMARY The program MRBAYES performs Bayesian inference of phylogeny using a variant of Markov chain Monte Carlo. AVAILABILITY MRBAYES, including the source code, documentation, sample data files, and an executable, is available at http://brahms.biology.rochester.edu/software.html.
متن کاملBayesian Network Tomography and Inference
The aim of this technical report is to give a short overview of known techniques for network tomography (introduced in the paper of Vardi (1996)), extended by a Bayesian approach originating Tebaldi and West (1998). Since the studies of A.K. Erlang (1878-1929) on telephone networks in the last millennium, lots of needs are seen in todays applications of networks and network tomography, so for i...
متن کاملNetwork Plasticity as Bayesian Inference
General results from statistical learning theory suggest to understand not only brain computations, but also brain plasticity as probabilistic inference. But a model for that has been missing. We propose that inherently stochastic features of synaptic plasticity and spine motility enable cortical networks of neurons to carry out probabilistic inference by sampling from a posterior distribution ...
