چکیده

In this paper, we propose Estimation of Distribution Programming (EDP) based on a probability distribution expression using a Bayesian network. EDP is a population-based program search method, in which the population probability distribution is estimated, and individuals are generated based on the results. We focus our attention on the fact that the dependency relationship of nodes of the program (expressed as a tree structure) is explicit, and estimate the probability distribution of the program population using a Bayesian network. We compare EDP with GP (Genetic Programming) on several benchmark tests, i.e., a max problem and a boolean function problem. We also discuss the trends of problems that are the forte of EDP.

E-Bayesian Approach in A Shrinkage Estimation of Parameter of Inverse Rayleigh Distribution under General Entropy Loss Function

‎Whenever approximate and initial information about the unknown parameter of a distribution is available, the shrinkage estimation method can be used to estimate it. In this paper, first the $ E $-Bayesian estimation of the parameter of inverse Rayleigh distribution under the general entropy loss function is obtained. Then, the shrinkage estimate of the inverse Rayleigh distribution parameter i...

Bayesian Estimation of Reliability of the Electronic Components Using Censored Data from Weibull Distribution: Different Prior Distributions

The Weibull distribution has been widely used in survival and engineering reliability analysis. In life testing experiments is fairly common practice to terminate the experiment before all the items have failed, that means the data are censored. Thus, the main objective of this paper is to estimate the reliability function of the Weibull distribution with uncensored and censored data by using B...

A Surface Water Evaporation Estimation Model Using Bayesian Belief Networks with an Application to the Persian Gulf

Evaporation phenomena is a effective climate component on water resources management and has special importance in agriculture. In this paper, Bayesian belief networks (BBNs) as a non-linear modeling technique provide an evaporation estimation  method under uncertainty. As a case study, we estimated the surface water evaporation of the Persian Gulf and worked with a dataset of observations ...
