Possibilistic Influence Diagrams

In this article we present the framework of Possibilistic Influence Diagrams (PID), which allow to model in a compact form problems of sequential decision making under uncertainty, when only ordinal data on transitions likelihood or preferences are available. The graphical part of a PID is exactly the same as that of usual influence diagrams, however the semantics differ. Transition likelihoods...

Evaluating Influence Diagrams

In this paper we will survey the history of Influence Diagrams from their origin in Decision Theory to modern AI uses. We will compare the various methods that have been used to find an optimal strategy for a given influence diagram. These methods have various advantages under different assumptions and there is a progression to the present of richer, more general solutions. We also look at an a...

Three new sensitivity analysis methods for influence diagrams

Performing sensitivity analysis for influence diagrams using the decision circuit framework is particularly convenient, since the partial derivatives with respect to every parameter are readily available [Bhattacharjya and Shachter, 2007; 2008]. In this paper we present three non-linear sensitivity analysis methods that utilize this partial derivative information and therefore do not require re...

Explaining Predictions in Bayesian Networks and Influence Diagrams

As Bayesian Networks and Influence Diagrams are being used more and more widely, the importance of an efficient explanation mechanism becomes more apparent. We focus on predictive explanations, the ones designed to explain predictions and recommendations of probabilistic systems. We analyze the issues involved in defining, computing and evaluating such explanations and present an algorithm to c...

Model-Based Influence Diagrams for Machine Vision

We show the soundness of automated con­ trol of machine vision systems based on in­ cremental creation and evaluation of a par­ ticular family of influence diagrams that rep­ resent hypotheses of imagery interpretation and possible subsequent processing decisions. In our approach, model-based machine vi­ sion techniques are integrated with hierarchi­ cal Bayesian inference to provide a framewor...

Solving influence diagrams: Exact algorithms

Influence diagrams were developed as a graphical representation for formulating a decision analysis model, facilitating communication between the decision maker and the analyst [1]. We show several approaches for evaluating influence diagrams, determining the optimal strategy for the decision maker and the value or certain equivalent of the decision situation when that optimal strategy is appli...
