Dynamic Bayesian Networks for Information Fusion with Applications to Humanncomputer Interfaces Dynamic Bayesian Networks for Information Fusion with Applications to Humanncomputer Interfaces
Recent advances in various display and virtual technologies coupled with an explosion in available computing power have given rise to a number of novel human{computer interaction (HCI) modalities{ speech, vision-based gesture recognition, eye tracking, EEG, etc. However, despite the abundance of novel interaction devices, the naturalness and e ciency of HCI has remained low. This is due in part...
متن کاملCompeting Fusion for Bayesian Applications
In this paper we address and discuss the problem of learning graphical models like Bayesian networks using structure learning algorithms. We present a new parameterized structure learning approach. A competing fusion mechanism to aggregate expert knowledge stored in distributed knowledge bases or probability distributions is also described. Experimental results of a medical case study show that...
متن کاملBayesian Modeling of Unknown Diseases for Biosurveillance
This paper investigates Bayesian modeling of unknown causes of events in the context of disease-outbreak detection. We introduce a Bayesian approach that models and detects both (1) known diseases (e.g., influenza and anthrax) by using informative prior probabilities and (2) unknown diseases (e.g., a new, highly contagious respiratory virus that has never been seen before) by using relatively n...
متن کاملBayesian Biosurveillance of Disease Outbreaks
Early, reliable detection of disease outbreaks is a critical problem today. This paper reports an investigation of the use of causal Bayesian networks to model spatio-temporal patterns of a non-contagious disease (respiratory anthrax infection) in a population of people. The number of parameters in such a network can become enormous, if not carefully managed. Also, inference needs to be perform...
متن کاملA Bayesian Blackboard for Information Fusion
A Bayesian blackboard is just a conventional, knowledge-based blackboard system in which knowledge sources modify Bayesian networks on the blackboard. As an architecture for intelligence analysis and data fusion this has many advantages: The blackboard is a shared workspace or “corporate memory” for collaborating analysts; analyses can be developed over long periods of time with information tha...
