Troubleshooting using probabilistic networks and value of information
نویسندگان
چکیده
We develop a decision-theoretic method that yields approximate, low cost troubleshooting plans by making more relevant observations and devoting more time to generate a plan. The method is tested against other methods on three different problems in an experimental setting. Sensitivity analysis of the parameters is also carried out. The method yields low cost troubleshooting plans by spending substantially more computation time. The method turns out to be robust with respect to changes in observation and repair costs.

LPKP: location-based probabilistic key pre-distribution scheme for large-scale wireless sensor networks using graph coloring
Communication security of wireless sensor networks is achieved using cryptographic keys assigned to the nodes. Due to resource constraints in such networks, random key pre-distribution schemes are of high interest. Although in most of these schemes no location information is considered, there are scenarios that location information can be obtained by nodes after their deployment. In this paper,...
متن کاملA Proposal to Combine Probabilistic Reasoning with Case-Based Retrieval for Software Troubleshooting
Analysis of a real case of software troubleshooting made it clear that probabilistic models, or Bayesian networks are suitable for modeling software troubleshooting processes in today’s computing environments. As a way to support software troubleshooting by reusing skillful support engineers’ expertise, I propose to use Bayesian networks and probabilistic reasoning for case-based retrieval. The...
متن کاملProbabilistic Contaminant Source Identification in Water Distribution Infrastructure Systems
Large water distribution systems can be highly vulnerable to penetration of contaminant factors caused by different means including deliberate contamination injections. As contaminants quickly spread into a water distribution network, rapid characterization of the pollution source has a high measure of importance for early warning assessment and disaster management. In this paper, a methodology...
متن کاملLoad-Frequency Control: a GA based Bayesian Networks Multi-agent System
Bayesian Networks (BN) provides a robust probabilistic method of reasoning under uncertainty. They have been successfully applied in a variety of real-world tasks but they have received little attention in the area of load-frequency control (LFC). In practice, LFC systems use proportional-integral controllers. However since these controllers are designed using a linear model, the nonlinearities...
متن کاملA Link Prediction Method Based on Learning Automata in Social Networks
Nowadays, online social networks are considered as one of the most important emerging phenomena of human societies. In these networks, prediction of link by relying on the knowledge existing of the interaction between network actors provides an estimation of the probability of creation of a new relationship in future. A wide range of applications can be found for link prediction such as electro...
