Theory and Methodology A Bayesian network approach to making inferences in causal maps
The main goal of this paper is to describe a new graphical structure called ÔBayesian causal mapsÕ to represent and analyze domain knowledge of experts. A Bayesian causal map is a causal map, i.e., a network-based representation of an expertÕs cognition. It is also a Bayesian network, i.e., a graphical representation of an expertÕs knowledge based on probability theory. Bayesian causal maps enh...
متن کاملInference reasoning on fishers' knowledge using Bayesian causal maps
Scientists and managers are not the only holders of knowledge regarding environmental issues: other stakeholders such as farmers or fishers do have empirical and relevant knowledge. Thus, new approaches for knowledge representation in the case of multiple knowledge sources, but still enabling reasoning, are needed. Cognitive maps and Bayesian networks constitute some useful formalisms to addres...
متن کاملRisk Analysis of Operating Room Using the Fuzzy Bayesian Network Model
To enhance Patient’s safety, we need effective methods for risk management. This work aims to propose an integrated approach to risk management for a hospital system. To improve patient’s safety, we should develop flexible methods where different aspects of risk and type of information are taken into consideration. This paper proposes a fuzzy Bayesian network to model and analyze risk in the op...
متن کاملBayesian Causal Maps as Decision Aids in Venture Capital Decision Making: Methods and Applications † Short title: Bayesian Causal Maps for VCs
Improving venture capitalists’ decision processes is key to reducing failure rates for venture capital backed companies and to improving portfolio returns. In this paper we describe the use of a novel technique—Bayesian causal maps—to support and improve venture capital decision making. We combine causal mapping and Bayesian network techniques to construct a Bayesian causal map. The resulting p...
متن کاملCausation , Bayesian Networks , and Cognitive Maps ∗
Causation plays a critical role in many predictive and inference tasks. Bayesian networks (BNs) have been used to construct inference systems for diagnostics and decision making. More recently, fuzzy cognitive maps (FCMs) have gained considerable attention and offer an alternative framework for representing structured human knowledge and causal inference. In this paper I briefly introduce Bayes...
